Prometheus: The Discipline Of Fire And Demise
and again he came to cherish 
the comfort of mysteries 
inspiring and far away 
timeless in the moment 
they painted immortality 


forever drawn towards the centre 
of this ensorcelling flame 
yet, still in fear of the sacrifice 
it would take to know its name 


"Do not despair", said the mystery 
"You will always have a friend in me 
until the day you break my code 
then I will be gone and you are free... 
...to manifest another" 


towards the heavens he did aspire 
now he shall burn who sought the fire 
some will mourn the ashes cold 
while others behold the inferno unfold 


forever drawn towards the centre 
of this ensorcelling flame 
yet, still in fear of the sacrifice 
it would take to know its name 


now he shall burn who sought the fire 
to manifest another
