Iceland’s Volcano

Red rivers flowing over blackened land

Beauty erupting from the ground
Red rivers flowing over blackened land
Fountains of black and red in the caldera
Pouring out across the area
Searing heat, chemicals deadly
All portraying Earth’s angry splendor
Pressure building, releasing
Glowing waves run through the view
Beauty, violence, intertwined

Inspired by Traveller In The Whole World’s August 15th YouTube video of the eruption the current Islandic volcano. If you like volcanos, geology, or great drone photography, I believe you will find many of the videos on this channel hypnotizing.
