Hell fairies - Nadia

Burn flame burn !
Feed my soul's quick light
With stolen fires
Of delight

Ringlets of longing
steeped in soft subtle dreaming
Buttressed by the shiny
papers that the natives
find to paste the soul

's gaping abyss of dark and noxious paths

All the while
raising heated fumes from the soul's
once-moderate and muted grace
