How about

Until there'll be a new post or a rant, how about poetry? Will that do just fine?

***

Sometimes it’s hard to believe

That the Phoenix is the real deal

But then, we’ve all seen it

Again and again, we have all met

Cause as much as we hate it

We all must truly admit

That we break our wings

That we crash our trains

And put out our thoughts

We say “tomorrow” again and again

Taking for granted our time

Spending it freely on all things

Some dear, some little and useless

But that’s who and how we are

It’s our nature to spend it

It’s our nature to break it

It’s our flaw to not see

It’s our flaw to bend

Sp we spend our time bending

We break our patience in half

And we sink in quicksand of pity

Struggling to cry for ourselves

We feel the heat rising within

Taking control, making its way

We call this shame and hide it

But we all blush sometimes

It’s not shame, it isn’t

The heat is something else

It’s the Phoenix spreading

Coursing and boiling within

Cause we are the Phoenix

Always hiding in a shell

Until sorrow cracks us

Breaking our hardened shell

We burn and again we rise

Since it’s in our nature to rise

Again and again from the sands

And rekindle our true selves.

Think it should be called "Birds of Legend". Hope it's good :)
