Ashes



As I danced around the fire, a flying cinder burned my toe; I bent down to tend to it.
I looked up, gasped, shocked by the throng of figures, around the fire. Evil faces, full of hate. Squinting at the burning mass, I thought I saw my face on the effigy’s.

having tough time interpreting them, and getting curious.
What inspired those words? Or were they just spontaneous,

Such misanthropy? ;)

Never mind, happened with me, too. Two years back. Just had to blur the distinction between friendship and acquaintance, that's all! Simple! :)
