Never heard
Of the Phoenix 138
Until yesterday
Though I'd encountered
The Great Pyramid's
2038
Give or take
A couple of years
Anyways, it grabbed
Me by the ears
Who moves
The galactic gears?

The numbers give meaning to this poem in its rhyme and flow. Well done
Thanks as always, Soren. Yes, the numbers are where it’s at!
You are welcome
I like how this one feels like a cosmic riddle: Phoenix, Pyramid, and then suddenly the whole galaxy. It’s like the poem starts small and personal (“grabbed me by the ears”) and then zooms out to the biggest question of all: who’s actually turning the gears of existence? Short, sharp, and it leaves you hanging in that wonder. 🕊️🙏
Yes, I wrote it with the idea of it being a cosmic riddle! Thanks for dropping by.
Nice!
Mutley, what a short burst of cosmic wonder...cryptic, rhythmic, and deeply alive! You remind us that mystery itself is the motion behind the gears. Very well done and a fave.🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛
“Mystery itself is in motion behind the gears.” Love it!
I looked up Phoenix 138
Took me to panini cards and minecraft game
So I'm as wise as ever
Got us all thinking again mutley
Good to have you home
I was being pretty cryptic. If you type in Planet Phoenix , 138 year cycle, you can go down a rabbit hole! A guy called “Archaix” can guide you.
A good cosmic riddle , who moves the gears indeed?
Who moves into high gear
Every 138 years?!
i would say only Nature can/should and will survive and hopefully do so.....
unless it's the Phoenix rising from the ashes..lol
