When Squirrel and Molten Iron Meet

When Squirrel And Molten Iron Meet Iron melts releasing angry ores Molten *liquifications flow blood red below Disgruntled veins twist beneath the Earth Deranged rivers on volcanic burst Squirrel jumps at this opportunity Mimics strange metallic sounds Melting squeaks cannot be heard above the tumult Wire haired creature sweats, filled with fear By the banks of hell and heat before retreating Smart enough to leave such dangerous elements There are no acorns to be found along the lava flow Trees burn and so do living things in irons agony alone Note: (* I invented the word liquification for your reading pleasure and entertainment.)
