Fire at Midnight

Stars are falling...
Artists, drawing...
Pencils, crawling
Across the board.

Death is reaping...
Patients, sleeping...
Shadows, creeping
Around the ward.

Harmony, beneath my feet,
Treachery, from down the street,
A person walking,
A flower's bloom,
A demon stalking,
A planet's doom,

The fire scorched the earth.
