Candles on the tree

 

Snap lights on their faces.

Flames, tender, but brought together.

Flaming sea warmth.

Then a bluish shiver, struggle

at the breath level, only huge inside

Overflow, in the needle ring

clawed wax arms.

wax, confuses, first hot, then cold: Wishes,

Hope root below, hanging on

sawed off trunk,

Show me the light switch!

Must be able to see the misery.
