the fire stood higher and higher
atop its pile of paper tigers
as the moon inhaled and coughed
the stars, loyal and without a doubt
took the place of those smoked out
-
the moon distracted
the stars re-casted
and the fire stood higher and higher
Please tell me what you think

This is an interesting write ...
but it reminds me of an acid trip. I'm not at all sure that's what you intended, but anyway it's a good poem no matter how you take it.

You know...
I wish you'd write again. -
This reminds me of a party I was at not too long ago.
Loved the image of the "moon inhaled and coughed", and ahhh yes...the stars, they are loyal!
Excellent poem. Creatively written
