Hi moot. I like the poem, but as i saw you were asking questions about rhyme, flow and meter, here's how i would have edited the black over lines...
Black ovens burn cool enough
cry's of respite. seems off. with cry's of respite would work better. also who is screaming?
Flames of legacy flames of legacy seems put here because it sounds cool.
ignite. ok. Cry's of respite is 4 syllables, (cry's) (of) (res) (pite). Thus your last line should be 4 as well, at least if you're trying to have some rhythm.
So my edited para is..
Black ovens burn,
and the cry's of respite
overshadow the flames,
who are legacy ignite...
