The Fire

Out of wisdom, comes death,

And from death, a return

Wiser, more closely bound

To the earth. A fire rises

Which is not our own,

But belongs to itself

And consumes our soul

Till it is nothing but flame

Retreating from the flesh

Which grows cold.

When there is nothing left

There will be fire, and it will be

The soul.
