The Fire Now Yours

Kurt Philip Behm

You hide behind

the angels mask

 

As truth unsheathes

its sword

 

Your costume stripped,

the devil unleashed

 

His fire,

—your fate to endure

    Kind of sexy. Better to still the devils fire to your own use. Beautiful writing.

        Thanks. My name is Maria Lucia and I love a poem our great Brazilian poet Vinicios de Morais wrote one day. It is called Maria Lucia and is about my name.

        Great story, Maria. It's nice to know you.
