Oblivion

Flickering heat, blazing light.
Fire.
Burning fiercely throughout the night.

No stars. No moon.
It's the only illumination.
Raging uncontrollably,
irrevocably in its manifestation.

Searing everything. Burning all.
Nothing will survive unscathed until day fall.

Ashy black soot and steaming ruins
All that remains
beneath the flame quenching rain.

Everything forced into oblivion.
