Ritual Fire

Caamora- cleansing fire
Burning away
charred bits of memories,
which cling to my soul
melting away worries.

What is mine?
writing?
igniting the paper
with my burning heart-
purging with words.

I must write
to free
the pain from inside;
releasing it all -
a literary cry of pain.

Lawrence R. Daffner, 12/92
