Dance Like Fire

Remember when we lived near Los Feliz?
There was a fire raging down the hills of Griffith Park.
It was near twilight.
We watched the fire as it danced dangerously close to a line of houses,
Standing frozen at the parking of Best Buy.
It teased with it's flames licking ever so closely to some homes,
and then the wind would shift
and the flames graciously dipped in the opposite direction like a sudden tango note.
It was so beautifully hypnotizing
for a moment I forgot it was supposed to be a tragedy.
That's what I want.
I want to dance like fire.
I want you to be my wind.
