Sun

In five billion years
The hydrogen fuel in the sun
Will be used up
And the sun will explode
Into a red giant
Burning up the entire solar system
But new suns will arise
And even the universe
Will contract and explode again
In a constant renewal
Just as ancient Israel is re-arising
Like the legendary phoenix
Out of the ashes of the
Arab intruders' desert waste land...
