The Burning Bones

Fränz Müller

Desire

kindles a fire within

that sets one’s bones alight;

Passion

drives those urges forward

in the cool of velvet night.

Sin

is just a wilderness

in which our ego fails;

Id:

eternal champion

drives sense right off the rails.

    A wonderful description of how primal urges take over. With Id driving the bus ego takes a back seat and superego is never picked up. Well done Franz

    Fränz…this burns with a sharp, compact intensity. The progression from “Desire” to “Passion” to “Sin” to “Id” feels almost like descending levels of the psyche, each stanza stripping away another layer of restraint. “drives sense right off the rails” lands perfectly at the end. Strong piece, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛
