stella’s on fire:
her tears burn down her cheeks.
she feels sorry for everyone;
for those that know,
for those that don’t.
stella’s ABLAZE!
she got disconnected
again.
stella’s going to be ok.
she can dream herself
to sleep
where everyone of those
burning tears has a name
and she learns all
the names off by heart.
this litany of chanted names
she cries to herself
when all of the flames
get too cold to bear.
stella’s on fire:
she’s wearing the devil
in her hair
and carrying his flame
in her eyes.

stella ablaze
in cold flame
freezing fire
in her eyes
