Inferno

Oil painting attempt on Australia bush fire

lost in the swamp of heat
without relief, reprieve
disintegrate into ash
cease to exist

  1. I really like this one. The utter despair of the poem matches the overwhelming destructive chaos of the painting. There are wildfires every summer in my area in southwest Colorado as well. The devastation is unimaginable. Beautiful words and painting, Cassa! 🙂

  2. Your painting has really captured the intensity of the fire. The inferno. And your words, perhaps the intensity of sorrow. The fires, loss and despair must have been utterly devastating. And terrifying.
