    There is flux in phoenix grandeur!
    Fearful of tarnishing in the sun,
    I ruffled my feathers; they fumed,
    And nestled in my plumage,
    I endure.

    Deep inside her belly
    I smolder and ventilate -
    Enveloped in magma; flowing
    Asphyxiated on my constraints,
    I rise from a pressure cooker.

    Flames lick and scorch the lip
    Exposed before her radiant eye,
    I tremble and ignite; engulfed
    And as the spectrum intensifies,
    I melt.

    She cries with me.
    I fester and spark;
    Wings expand to fan the fire
    In charred remnants past
    I arise from the ash.
