The Weapons of Warmth

Told ya I had an idea...
Once again, somewhat based on the song "Vesuvius" by Sufjan Stevens. The Weapons of Warmth refers to the volcano as the subject. It's meant to convey the flip-sides of pretty much anything. At one point, it's positive, the volcano brings life, it keeps the planet moving...it's a sign that the Earth is healthy. On the other side, it is destructive, deadly and devastating. The Weapon which tears the Earth apart and destroys that which covers the land. The piece is meant to cover both sides...the simultaneous beauty and horror of every situation..that which tears at you throughout life to make the right decisions...to be able to look at the larger picture. Would you shut down that which may be destructive now, only to push the ultimate pain to another place or person? Would you choose to take the brunt of negativity for the greater good?
