Immaculate Conception

By Mr King

Out of a frying pan...
And into fire...

Out of which rises...
A phoenix...

Like the transformation of a caterpillar into...
A butterfly...

Like a sand irritation inside of an oyster becomes...
A pearl...

Like coal compressed for thousands of years becomes...
A diamond...

Like we were born to live through our struggle and pain in this life...
And to stand victorious over it all...

Immaculate!

    From the dust and ash of yesterday, even prophets fall; pristine are those that stand in the wake of the morrow.
