Flames of the dragon
Uncertain laws of life
Teeter on the edge
Of the volcanoes
Waiting to incinerate
Joy, hope and possibility
Crushed in the palm
So desperate to hold onto
Assisted by the people
Afraid of your happiness
Unable to celebrate your success
For the terror of scarcity
There isn’t enough for both
Yours and theirs
Draconian survival heart
For there can only be one
But this is not so
Abundance is for everyone
Rejoiced it reproduces
First in the mind
And then in life

Magnificent volcanic landscape and beautiful, poignant, powerful words to accompany it. Well done.
