Stoke the Forge
Unrefined, rough, jagged scrap
Set into a firebrick sand trap
Atop a crucible of graphite
An invader on smoldering coal light
Billows depress and blast the furnace
Metals rest and slags surface
Sitting atop a thermite pillow
Sleeping until the husk is yellow
Pneumonic pressure blowing cinders
Embers stoke and winter withers
Graphite is set and brass is poured in
Preparing alloys to hammer bombard it
Onto an anvil cooled ingots are placed
Crystallized ore in bars are cased
Unto bronze mixtures sparks are incited
From battering fixtures elements guided
Violent lightning cracks from iron
Smashing warm rods with rumble pyre
Luster diffuses, tenacious infused
Made to heat ferry and transfuse
Consume Reality!
