Once More Into The Season
Winter, spring, summer, fire season, then fall?
It grows in the night, fueled by the hunger of the day
Bringing with it a ravenous, dark, and insidious appetite
Fueled by the embers of a world that long since took it for granted, you'd say
When did the darkness become so accepted, and did we lose the fight
None knows the heat like those who walk in its destruction
The hunger that raped and pillaged the world below as it rose into the skies
It bears down on you mercilessly, with no goal but devastation
And it becomes so evil it's something you grow to despise
It grows with a life of its own
A beating heart, and character and life from within
It requires one or two, but its life can start alone
Requiring brains to ascertain where it all will begin
Do you step into the heat
Let the fires burn
Will you win or will you be beat
Ending when you finally learn
The time for talking and disputes is over long ago
The world is falling into the fire
Will you get it right or fail slow
Survival should be your desire

From fiction to reality there’s tons to share about this crazy life. From being a single father, an officer, and having had many insane adventures while I learned about the world, my imagination runs wild with ideas.
