Kincade

As I sit here, evacuated from the fire I relax in front of the warmth and ambience of a fire in the fireplace
With no buzzing sound of electricity
The lack of creature comforts to occupy me And no Netflix to distract me
I lay feeling waves of tension, emotions, moods, and I analyze
I analyze the difference between the uncontained fire driving me from my home and possibly taking my home
And at present, the small beautiful contained fire keeping me warm
Uncontained Fire: Big, wild, scary, ungrounded, ungrounding, dangerous, destructive, shifting and changing with a minds of its own Shifting and changing us, cleansing the earth, while damaging our lungs
Contained Fire: Small, warm beautiful, of service, nurturing, meditative Could this fire reflect our egos to us?
The inevitable ego that is part of every ones human experience
The uncontained, immature, wild fool
Shifting and changing ideally free of judgement and with patience
But more realistically with Earthly human judgement and impatience
​To the untapped contained wise human that so many of us have the capacity to be
