This eruption is devastating
Worst than I thought possible
The volcanic ash
Blocking the sun from view
The temperture just dropped 8 degrees
It feels like Krakatoa all over again
Different in the sense
That its not lava spewing from the walls
Its poetry
Its not Krakatoa
Its me that's erupting
I hate this burning sensation
Quite a shame really
Because I can't write everything down
As fast as it pours from me
It all becomes cold in the end anyway
Because I will be forgotten
Its Krakatoa all over again
Because I doubt you even know
What the hell I'm talking about
Or even understand the metaphor
That I am using
Its Krakatoa all over again
Soon you will find
Parts of me in countries
Such as Australia
And off the coast of Islands
Such as Easter Islands or The Canary Islands
Krakatoa all over but this volcano
Is erupting with something
Less devastating than lava
And words that can't reach far enough
