Fire Shouts

Voices of fire, booming, crackling explosions cry out their sulphuric elation. Another celebration, of every nation and baby new year’s rattle rings out to the heavens; transition is sometimes sweet; sometimes sour. Hopes ride high for the coming months; dreams’ are revived by Father time’s passing. Like the phoenix, he will rise again; his labors fill the days and nights of mortal illusion. It’s said that, we create our own reality; if so, why does he labor through every incarnation? Could it be that we are he? Fire shouts to our collective subconscious and we are renewed; an opportunity to create peace lies ahead. Happy New Year it cries; a new reality waits.

This line is terrific: "Fire shouts to our collective subconscious and we are renewed". It gives hope to me.
