VOICES FROM THE FIRE: Paul Warren

THE FEARFUL GIRL IS THE STRANGEST DANCER. 

The moonlit dance was never danced again .

The stonemason fled the scene .

In the stump of an old tree ,where hearts have rotted out .

Adam and Eve for a new generation ,scenarios the same ,just the faces that change.

Old leaves turn into lace skeletons. 

Feathers fall from the sky .

The fearful girl is the strangest dancer. 

The starlings return home.
