what happens when feathers catch fire
the wine in crystal veins burns
in the heat the crystal too shatters
and white ash falls like snow
these pieces melted in springs
created a heart from fire
still seen as an angel
yet a scratch in the soul
tries to tell: be aware
for there is a heart of fire
under this cloak of feathers
the calm of the springs hide the heat
yet it beats, waiting, needing
what happens when feathers catch fire
