Generational Slaughter

From the ashes, arose the Phoenix unlike any other 
Destined for damnation and destruction 
Abruptly, the ground trembled 
A bird like creature shot from the ground leaving the onlookers petrified 
With an enormous wingspan, the creature began to pillage 
Not a word was said but action became the verb 
Eyes wide open but belief is a distant vision 
Forever oppressed by gouls and goblins
