If Vulcan Wakes

If Vulcan Wakes (c) 2025 by The Entangled Pair If Vulcan fully wakes again and shakes his fiery dreads unleashing hell in all it's fury on our fearful heads I tell you once again my friends in words of common rhyme we perish not in watery graves but in the fires this time can't see the forest for the trees can't see the flame for all the fires can't see the streamlets for the flood can't see the needs behind desires if I'm the fire love, you're the spark that sets my very soul aflame and when I dance, I dance for you the one who knows my sacred name as I dance naked for you now I feel no fear, no hint of shame just the love and joy and rapture that my heart cannot restrain and so I dance for you my lover comfortably in pain now let us burn again my love, not in fear but passion, let the fires now forge us stronger in their molten fashion. if this world must end in ash, in cinders or in glowing coals then let us kiss at end of time while wading through the shoals and as we kiss our eyes must close as we are inward gazing because if we must fall my love, we fall together, blazing
