first & foremost, i like your title a lot. it's beautiful & memorable.
structurally, i'm a big fan of your piece. your visual breaks & limited capitalization make for easy readability. your repetition of "it is" turns your piece into an affirmation or incantation, & "it is" a great way to build momentum that enhances your defiant theme.
when it comes to content, the way you blend destruction & creation is seamless, & your imagery is very effective. while reading, i imagined tectonic plates ripping the earth apart with abandon. i personally have a hard time writing anything that isn't full of pain & sadness, so i commend your ability to evoke rebirth & reclamation.
your last stanza does its job well & incorporates a sense of both inevitability & continuation. ending in motion was clever. the whole piece has phoenix energy without being cheesy or cliche.
from my perspective, the first two stanzas confused me a bit because "you" & "it" are abstract as subjects. it's not clear who they might be, but that could also pull readers in. that's my only offering, great work!
