cracked Pathway for the Gods Pele spurts hot liquid Red but not lava Fiery and angry, she attacks Scorch her soul, burns her frame Fueled by her own wilting body Sway; released from thought, She is a pathway for the Gods Childbearing is her sacrifice She tainted another with her fluids Born pure, impure; noa Find the keeper of her firesticks Bewarned, dear uncle Sacrifice is your childbearing We two in the spray, one Embrace me tighter for it is happy work Pele who rejects weeps for my life I am taken into the coolness I am a pathway for the Gods | |
