THE MOTH IN THE FIRE



with its secret
killing the Mystery -
it Eternally is
in Front and
Before


always
flies into
the Fire -
whose Flames are older than
hallucinations


it -
before than angels -
disturbed the peace of
Heaven


disdaining in the Garden
the exulting
rose -
burns
itself from
inside


on wings
leaving just
the Flame


the fear -
which killed the horror -
will get the Terror
