Magma Rising

The land of living mountains slopes out gently
To the green sea in fold of tiny glass--
The glows red from dusk to dawn, and brass
Clouds move to bracket blue from red intently.
These are the lands that call for us to live
As these lands live--more dangerously. Careful,
Though, that you are not burned, that the heat's prayerful
Pull will not threaten every step, or give
You over to mere carelessness. Each movement
Needs style to perform you  to a new
Person, renew your body and your mind.
A past without regrets, and each new moment
An affirmation of your life, the true
Lava that makes the land much more refined.
