The last to burn
The last to glow
The last to billow up in a final break of smoke
The last to breath
The last to cough
The last coil in a rope of souls, the last to shuttle off

The cinders in this furnace
are the glowing of the fuel
The combustion of the burning
of the vice of me and you

The last to burn
The last to throb
The last to the heat of our objections burning off
The last refuse
The last to fire
The last cry for more timber to feed into the night

We are the cinders in this furnace
We are the glowing of the fuel
We are the combustion of the burning
of the vice of me and you
