As the temperature rises
My little pot
Begins to quake
Louder as it becomes
Grumbling, groaning
Creaking hot pot
A building phenomenon
Heat compounding pressure
I can feel it in my chest
Such agitation in this little pot
Trembling water
Expansion upon itself
This container
Such thin walls
Cradling this ignition
Rotating inner tension
Unseen yet felt, known
Roaring from head to floor
Might I step back
This churning cauldron
Expanding now too
Loud
Felt into me
And as the water can quake no more
Vessel can take no more
A sudden shift occurs
Blazing hot water transforms
Finding alignment once more
Once cold, then resistant
Now a rolling boil altogether new
The heat potentiated dance ensues
Clarity, coherence
As flow returns
Quieted, soothed
A whole new life
It made it through
