Let the fire continue as the smoke remains aloft Let the ambers glow as mannequins remark The ashes that are left untilled are blown away with wind Leave us all when mornings come, the personage again Times are spent with happen stance, and dreams inside the realm Nothing changes what has been, with who is at the helm Guiding past the marble vase the violent storm that builds Than chasing down the harsh resound, later hear unwilled Say what must and speak not long, to what is forward bent Heedless wrangle endless circuits, dilute what noises meant If there’s a chance beyond romance to liquidate the rage The book is done and so to some, continue turn the page Whatever path is taken, whatever roads is cruised Whenever time has given, if only what was used All that sanguinely bring, by the sweetness of the wine Or down the hall, through the squall, to the exit sign

Been asked about this poem and motivation for other work. I mostly give the Bob Dylan answer “what ever you want it to be.” But this one is less “artsy”. I was watching a anthology on Fleetwood Mac. This presents the turmoil of Stevie Nicks and Lindsay Buckingham’s relationship and breakup during the making of Rumours album
