A Lesson In History By Firelight


Brought from the mountain tops
By a generous Titan
Sacrificing himself
To a life enchained

The creator of man’s
First meal and his
Burning desires

Perfect in every way
Dancing among the ash
The Destroyer
The Bringer Of Life
Gentle Mother to the Phoenix

As warm as the sun
As beautiful as the sea
Casting it’s flickering light

Carried through the night sky
On forest-green silk scaled wings
With ruby eyes

Slowly dying away
As the sun pierces
The morning sky
Leaving only
Red-warmed ash
