The fire and the life
Fire exists only when matter burns.
To see fire it must burn from fuel.
Fire dies when matter exhausts
Or it dies when it is put out.
Life exists only when body burns. [grow]
To see life, body must consume and burn.
Life ceases when body stops burning.
And it ceases when it is killed.
Fire has vigour to thrive and catch.
Life has a drive to thrive and catch.
Both aren’t separable from matter
Both have no entity without matter.
