Your heart is like steel

The intensity of the equator can't disintegrate

A fountain of liquid magma not far away, dim magma

Does it call you? At the convergence of night and day

A heart like steel can't strike out

Wonderful music

The white blossoms sprout before your entryway

The rich stamen can't kiss your cool temple

Steel, pleased steel

In my paradise, under my feet, even in my bones

You hold up the world and you hold up yourself

Allow the weighty yearning to squeak

Steel, the illumination of the rainbow in the blasting sun

O hot steel, red brand

A piece of you is dead

May you be excused without anyone else eventually
