A life sparked, stoked in sulfur womb warmth
An infant birthed under white fiery eyes watching
Screams for comfort blistered by fists of familial legacy
Razed in a scorned recapitulation of a father’s past
A baby baked in parental abandonment, glazed by a mother’s apathy
Tiny heart blazed for an ashtray end
Starved for attention, as nurturance stirred molten
A soul pulverized, burnt, a boy neglected
Child branded body scarred just like grandpa’s
White smoke, flickering flame fainted
Loved less than cigarette droppings, toxic compost
Ashes to ashes, dust billowed in the wind
Ashes to ashes, dust billowed in the wind
Forgot by Mourn, a child's light smothered
Grief applauded a heritage extinguished
A spirit deep fried, rising phoenix wingless
