a/n Well, it's a poem, but I shouldn't think it's very good. Churnéd has two syllables by the way.

In the south where no one goes

The churnéd flame swirls and glows

No one ventures to the lair,

Where the sulphur scents the air

No one will mourn the loss, the lack

The thing that's gone and won't come back

Fire licks at the walls of jet,

Polished obsidian barely set

Shadow makes the flares seem brighter

Darkness makes the good seem lighter

If we were stood all side to side,

Who would shine and who would hide?

a/n It's about Mount Doom but also about how things reflect against each other. Anyway, tell me what you think.
