Volcanic Eruption of a Soul

In the mine of silence,                 
within the furnace of pain,                  
a burning soul, prepares for 
a tremendous explosion!

The mantle rocks fractured              
by the tremors of turmoil,    
seething like fire at the             
bottom of the inner realm.

Dust and ashes surged forth,  
emerging to be blown out                  
as a spiraled ember gust,              
that set the sky on fire!                     

Condemnation and omission, 
Repression and oppression,               
-what more is needed to splinter 
the inner walls of a helpless soul?

The hidden defensive feelings 
spewed out as soot and dark smoke.                                   Suppressed hopes and cries      
burst open the chinks of the soul 
like a crackling fire!

The boiled over aches of the soul 
scalded the unjust,                           
The outraged blaze charred 
the unrighteous people!

Tears, thick with grief,                          
in the womb of the Earth,        
melted and streamed as hot lava   
to pursue the wicked, and coiled them 
like a squeezing python!

The suppressed sighs engulfed them 
like black smoke that suffocates.
As the fuming flames swallow them, 
the fiery mountain erupted 
for the salvation of that vengeful soul!
