ruction
in her ire
earth spat fire
whose picture was more perfect
than a thousand words
i was more curious
about the furious
swelling of her bosom
injurious
spuriousness
her exhibitionism
unique phantasm
creating chasms
of spasm
with deadly enthusiasm
her hills belching
red hot acid vomit
her mountains drooled
lethargic lava
slowly cooled
like stubborn phlegm
on their sloping cheeks
crusting over
the fragile hem
of my cassava
plantation
of my cassava
the fragile hem
crusting over
on their sloping cheeks
like stubborn phlegm
slowly cooled
lethargic lava
her mountains drooled
red hot acid vomit
her hills belching
with deadly enthusiasm
of spasm
creating chasms
unique phantasm
her exhibitionism
spuriousness
injurious
swelling of her bosom
about the furious
i was more curious

O wow! You really took the time to look up cassava, Tallen! I had no idea its reference would trigger such interest.
Indeed, cassava was a staple of the Taino, the aboriginal people of Jamaica. If you've never had bammies a hot cake made from the grated, milk-expressed cassave trash/flakes), you ought to find where you might taste it -- perhaps from a Jamaican restaurant near you.
the tuber may be cooked and consumed the same way as our yams, as well. that way, though, it is rather bland in taste, although packed with nutrients.
Thanks for the positive review and the RL inclusion.

That's the message of the poem, Diz!
I suppose you might say that the words, like the natural phenomenon, carry the message of helpless surrender to forces beyond our understanding or control.

You definitely caused an eruption in form, CabCool. This is beautiful in both visual content and execution.
