And the world fell down,
around her feet,
til there was naught
but rocks and flames.
The harsh sulphur burned her cheeks,
the smoke was in her hair,
and all around her the ashes flew,
upon the dancing air.
Yet she walked with her feet bare,
and defiance in her eyes,
as the clouds grew bold and dark,
and terrorised the skies.
