my pets are hiding
they do not like fire works
scurry under bed

naked branches point skyward
lonely junko sings

ice and snow can freeze and blow
warm inside my den

comes a new path unexplored
leaves just hiding sun

another time in the age
the age of wonder

ash in the field
let this burn out make me new
cinders under foot

maybe it's where I belong
western sunset is calling
