"This is a recipe" you said "a recipe for disaster"
You always had a flair for hyperbole
The floorboards shook, the glasses cracked
The cupboard fell, dishes everywhere
The window cracked, outside a chasm yawned
Who knew that lava was below (The houses on the volcano)
The residents ran straight ahead one falling down the chasm
A boulder falling from the sky that crushed a fleeing cat
The ground below our feet like a trampoline
The lights went out, couldn't see but for the reddish glow
Who knew that lava was below (The houses on the volcano)
Clouds of ash falling like rain
Sirens wailing, explosions shake us
The ground undulates, the rift expands
The place we live not fit for man
The rescue workers move us in a line
As missiles hurl and people cried
The sound like a monster
They saved us as the rocks rained down
The floorboards shook, the glasses cracked
The cupboard fell, dishes everywhere
The window cracked, outside a chasm yawned
