Firelight
Smoke
And the scent of charred feathers
The Phoenix is burning
Again
Egg shells are made for cracking
And when people walk on tip toe
Avoiding
They may appear higher
Taller
For awhile
But it’s just an illusion
Unbalanced, they topple
Victims of their own guile
Burning is painful
But it’s honest
Besides,
The Phoenix has wings
Tip toe people can only go back to walking again
And phoenixes never truly die. 😀
Deep poetry, you can fly from tiptoes
