Phoenix

Fire Flames Earth shakes as volcano roars Brimstone shoots upward hundreds of miles Lava pours down the mountain slope Unimaginable is its scope As lava meets up with oceanic abyss The new land forms as the vapor will hiss From the center of the crater To the surface rises uncanny stone It appears to have bits of lava Like a scar across façade of that stone But this is no stone at all It is an egg And what appears to be lava It is a life form that formed inside that egg The shell breaks And phoenix rises from what is left He is heavenly spawn The spirit given form Like a kaleidoscope of many colors He ornaments the stars As he flies to the heavens Past planets like Jupiter and Mars In his talons Fundamental fabric of existence is Key to soul of Omni-verse Physics Holy Grail divine bliss
