A Poem of Once Upon a Time...

***
Once upon a time
From the ashes
I was made to come alive

From the breathing ashes
Was I condemned
Back to dead ashes

Now I know
Why all stories begin
With 'once upon a time! '

***

Once upon a time
You made me
Come alive
But then,
As if the creator has right
Over his creation
You sent me back to death
Now,
Am I alive
Or am I dead?

I'm neither!
