Mantis, The Celestial Madonna


She is tranquility enfolded in ambiguity,
symbolizing serenity before conception,
not idiosyncratic, but sympathetic stranger,
Mantis is the Celestial Madonna
as profound as a collapsing galaxy, 
defining a figure of cosmic importance,
destined to create the celestial savior,
the most significant universal entity.
She is the selected medium of transformation,
where the new universe swirls, 
weaving light and chlorophyll. 

Born on the cradle of mother earth, 
yet claimed by the emptiness of cosmos,
endowing her with the acumen of prophesy,
she walks on the footprints of silence,
steps following the shooting stars of the milky way
as her breath turns into a hymn of forgotten stars.

She is the epitome of spatial stillness 
that stabilizes the existential storms,
for she knows the exact rhythm of sorrow, 
and the precise cadence of delight,
steadying them on her palm.

The Avengers treat her as a teammate, 
a martial artist, the green essence of change,  
that feels the pulse of the extant universe, 
spreads the inflection of prayers across the cosmos.
