Exothermic Chemical Combustion - Allegaeon

A spark emerges, kindling flame

Set by components, heat, fuel, and oxygen

Tearing through forests, infernal blaze

Scorching the soil, making room for life to start again

Nitrogen, phosphorus, magnesium

Calcium, potassium, sulfuric amino acids

Through this disaster

Enrich the world

Shedding the skin of the canopy, return to Earth

The ashen rain

Falls to the world

Exothermic chemical combustion, let it burn

Natural pyre, arboreal funeral

And in the wake, lay massive graves

Supersurface catacombs of charcoal bones

An empty slate to set the stage for what’s to come

Nitrogen, phosphorus, magnesium

Calcium, potassium, sulfuric amino acids

Through this disaster

Enrich the world

Shedding the skin of the canopy, return to Earth

The ashen rain

Falls to the world

Exothermic chemical combustion, let it burn

Let it burn

Plant perception, fire-mediated serotinous seed dispersion

Alkalinity and acidity create eutrophic soil

Germination and flowering occur

Replacing with new life what was taken by disaster

Through this disaster

Enrich the world

Shedding the skin of the canopy, return to Earth

The ashen rain

Falls to the world

Exothermic chemical combustion, let it burn

Let it burn
