Ignited

The sun shines,
Bright,
Scorches the bare skin of the boys,
Salty and tired,
They rush,
Busy like the ants,
Gathering,
A pile grows,
A deadened forest,
The sun shines,
Bright,
Shines through the glasses outstretched,
Bright spots on the lenses,
Smoke,
Where there's smoke there's fire,
It grows,
Grasping for food,
The sun shines,
Bright,
It gets bigger,
Feeding on hopes,
A barrier against the coming dark,
With in all,
A race,
Against time,
Against the all consuming flames,
Now ignited,
Ignited,
Like rockets they spread,
Searching,
It twines,
Like vines,
Like life,
All around,
The island burns,
A two edged sword,
The sun shines,
Bright,
On the,
Fire,
Now, suddenly,
Ignited.
