Vog
Blowfish lungs spiked inside
hurting to exhale a volcano
blowing glass and ash
lava tubes for anatomy
blowing Pele's hair into eyes
No Vesuvius days
just a tinted haze
over life as usual
wasn't that
what some Etruscans would say?
if they'd had
descendants to repeat it...
but I'm dawdling
writing a poem
about annihilation
instead of going to work

life in the shadow of a volcano
