Burning of the Philadelphia by Edward Moran, painted in 1897
how far can I lean
until my skin catches
and sparks complete
italics tender-wicks
of flame enough to temper
heads of glass, distress leather
bisque fire potter’s clay
and petrify what else I may
This feels like a meditation on the edge between destruction and transformation. The way you weave glass, leather, and clay into the fire imagery is sharp. 💚
