Many Sided Views Poem by shimon weinroth

the mountain belched, dyspeptic innards,
grumbling intestines, bowels of the earth
erupted, spewed and vomited the burning lava,
red hot molten rock, smoking fumes

filled the air with havoc, searing heights
the tragedy of proximity, much contained
by watchers and warners, into a spectacle
of awe and delight, photography of familiar

sight of dangers, settles fright,
curiosity unbounded, voyage of voyeurs,
looking over the rim fell in
