i've died countless times
nine lives means nothing to me
i need infinity like the phoenix
brushing off the soot
as i break through the womb
ya lo traté de seguir sin ti
and a phoenix you should be
so ashen memory can
never again erase your dreams of fire
for you i would rewrite
every line to a curious cat’s destiny

This is very cool. I think the opening is genius - the imagery and meaning carefully executed and developed. The closing was good - but the opening part was my favorite. It was cool how you incorporated french (?) - i dont know what it was, but whatever, it sounded cool.

Thank you, this is one of the poems I care most about Yeah, the phoenix motif wasn't my idea, though, and I got the fire one out of it

It is this type of thing that makes you a great writer. You do truly have a talent for creating unique imagery and stimulating thoughts.
You keep me in awe.
