"COOL THE FLAMES"

A almost soundless night
Sighs
sighs of relief
   at the
                  sounds
                             and sights of a lighted siren
                                                                           sirens they
                  sound upon Fresno's
         Red wave
     a Red blaze
     a Red truck
       with ladders n hoses n spraying it saves
in a maze
in a craze
flames
     a fire
     a call from the wire
     a Dispatcher
     a call from up   Hire
     a Police Chopper
     above and beyond
                Skyway
      Supporters extend
     a Eagle s Eye view
     a Spining Halo of Love
                  Uniforms
                         Form Heroes
                                              as
                                    Heroes
     they   approach
     the unapproachable
    a flammable
    a smoke
    a flame
    a flashy flame arises
    a fearless desire to Save
            Into
    a Death flamming barricade
    All There Training
    All There Skills
          To Save a Life
          To Save there Own Lives         SELFLESS HEROES
    a tear
       tears start to                       
appear
        if they Die
           they
          have Died
              Your 
   Mothers n  Fathers
              Your
        Wifes n Husbands
              Will Cry
They have  Cried For You
                                         You All
All THE LOST AND NEVER     FORGOTTEN
            in a Flame
                 a Name
                 a endless list
                of Names
  A Heroes Name
  A Firefighter
  A American Ambulance  which     came to do the same
   In Jesus Name
   Protect and cool the Flames
          of Fresno Californa . Amen.

  1. I appreciate how you use imagery and you abandon conventional use of chronology at times to bring the reader and speaker together in a moment that stands outside of time.
