Late Night Fire Dancing



The revelers sway, stomp, pound their fists against naked chests

While being caressed by the loving finger’s of the night’s flame

Sincere, gleaming eyes transfixed

They shout, laugh, cry and confess.

Emotions being intensified  

With mead and endorphins.

This spectacle of individuals

Undulates into a single mass

A living, breathing, transcended heart.

But what is to be done with the reveler

Who falls in love with the flame,

And is no longer satisfied dancing the soul’s jubilee

At festival time under the influence of mother moon’s

Intoxicating pull.

Craving the heavy heat of immolation and the out of body

Exultation,

They seek the circle almost every night and are always restless.

Let us allow them to be priests of the flame.

So that love can be nurtured and understood.

So that they may pass that knowledge on to others.
