Prometheus and the Ring of Fire
After Prometheus stole fire and gave to humanity,
the Olympian gods were outraged. Zeus condemned him
to eternal torment for his transgression.
He was bound to a cliff and his liver was eaten
by an eagle, and grew back overnight,
only to be eaten again in an ongoing cycle.
He was eventually freed by the hero Heracles.
Since then, nobody knew his whereabouts
until in 2019 an eyewitness spotted him
disguising as a formation of wild geese,
flying through the ring of fire as it occurred.
Each of the geese stole a tiny flame from the ring
as Apollo's only eye was mostly covered.
The geese then spread the fire,
lighted up all the clouds in the sky,
burned away the sorrow of millions of people.
In a day, the ring of fire will return.
More than ever, we desperately need Prometheus,
the champion of mankind, comes back
to pull off
another miracle. There are just too many wars,
too much suffering, too much sorrow in our world.
普羅米修斯重現人類世界的神跡有以下目擊者所寫詩作和所拍照片為證。
【五絕】火之環
雁陣穿環過，
悄將火種留。
點燃千裏靄，
燒盡萬家愁。

米羅普修斯與火之環
米羅普修斯偷火給人類後，
奧林匹亞山上眾神震怒，
宙斯罰他，讓他永生受苦，
把他鎖上山崖，他的肝被鷹啄食，
夜晚長回，隻為第二天再被叼走。
英雄赫拉克勒斯最終還他自由，
從此他就不知所終，杳然江湖。
直到2019年的某一天，
有目擊者看到他在這個世界重現，
當時他化作人字雁行，在日環食時
穿飛過正在形成的火之環。
唉，他始終無法把人相忘。
當地球用他的月亮小妹妹遮住
阿波羅的獨眼，每隻雁都從火環
偷走一點火種，播撒到整個天空，
點燃了天上所有的雲，
把無數人的悲傷燒盡。
再過一天，火之環將金輪回轉。
我們比以往任何時候都迫切地需要
人類的守護神普羅米修斯王者歸來，
再次上演神跡，因為我們的世界
有太多戰爭，太多苦難，太多悲傷。
