Sky

she of the sky
and i of the earth

if i hold her up
should she tear me down
steal the crown from my head

alack
she was not the first
to bellow with ashen breeze
for i lit the flame
Fault cannot be measured by the inch.
not blameless
and so came to pass

her ice and my fire

i spewed a dragon's breath upon the sky
her delicate snows could not withstand
the heat of flame
But what of blame?
blame is worthless to me now

no snow will land on my fiery surface now
not of her; not falling from her gray-tinted sky
