Phoenix



Come

          play with me

               I'm burning off

                          the dross

               leaving it behind

          in ashes

    from them, I rise

                  again, fiery

             a desert wind

    scent of spice

                 kicking up dust

                              playfully

                under a cool moon

             while an owl

   calmly looks on

more wise
