sublime

by gently heating
it’s possible to convert
certain substances to gas
only to have them condense
back to their solid state
by way of cooling

what tricks are these
and what purpose do they serve

wouldn’t it be grander
to raise someone or something
into a state of excellence
in a spiritual sort of way
w/o the need of temperature
manipulation
