rose, fox, serpent, stars

the world's gonna catch on fire, they say I could fear and I do but I'd rather walk forward and catch that blaze myself take me with you, mama! set me free, every atom to become, once again — to change into stars worlds planets others there must be another world after this after the conflagration days and I believe this, like holding a flame on my tongue— it's gotta be better than what we never meant to set alight. let me catch it, too let me go with you.
