Amen Mike! This is fierce! I love it!
Wow, DP is a real stretch backward for me. Great sonnet!
We all have the 'fire' to live our lives. It's just the way we choose to live it that matters to us and whomever. Great work.
Fantastic piece! Fire is such a strong element. I love how you give your writing its strength.
Good job, Mike and good luck in the challenge
Burn bright! Love it so empowering!
Such a powerful, fiery piece. I love how you turn every attempt to dim your light into fuel.
I got excited cos that's one of my fave DP songs. Great sonnet from the master of the craft
