We danced at the fire
Youth blazing bright
Paths unseen
As we mimicked the flame
We rode the gale
Ran ahead of the storm
Never fearing
The rain that might catch us
We drank the deeps
Probing the within
Always curious
For what was concealed
We grasped the candle
Illuminating each page
Devouring knowledge
Ignoring wisdom until dawn
We brandished the blades
Of well honed rhetoric
Clashing arms
Ruling our small, small world
We laughed at the fools
Ate of their feasts
Never realizing
They were ourselves
