Bone-dry black
Then flame flutters
Darkness banished
Instantaneous illumination
Stability to speed
A case of catalyst
Gleam for the guilty
Engraved with a name
Dust into dust
Strong crumbles
Scattered powder
Shattered structure
Contracts and laws
Physics' court jester
Count by precedence
Of the broken and bent
Elevated alchemy
Lead into light
Sparkling mid-air
Everything glitters
