Fog shadows and faded light
The pale cloud remnant of familiar face
Reflects grey shrouded flame and fire
Bloodied red explosive destruction
In a magnificent midnight bloom.
Upward glancing
To melancholy moon
A Languorous lament
For this unexpected falling star.
Code words and call signs
Misplaced in panic,
As the iron bound lucifer
drops from the sky
Illumination exultant
Slow motion settles
into a delicate fountain
Of ash and dust.
