Lifecycle

Arriving...
From shreds of nothingness
Stepping into stark reality
Defining a new name

Breathing...
The contiguous flames
A circle of yellow created
Trapped a soul in cellophane

A mob undead rounding the plague
Brandishing swathes of dismay
A decayed hand catches the throat
The eye of cosmos looks with disdain

Fleeting...
Pain ignites inside
Burning flakes of skin
Embers incinerating innards

Departing...
Into shreds of nothingness
Stripping into a red haven
Lost finally without a name
