Fire

Fire, intriguing
isn't it?
What is it?
I've learned of
States, the solid
Liquid, and gas
But what is fire
The crimson blaze
We see.
Not the Distorted
Image above
But the red we see
The part that burns
What state is it in?
Oxygen, fuel and heat
Makes fire but what state
Does heated fuel exposed
To oxygen make
It can't be solid
It defies the laws
It isn't liquid
Extinguished by itself?
Its not a gas
It does not take
Shape of its container
It consumes its container
So what is fire?
