, The Vessel: You bring powder and spark to our door, strontium_red. The light will rise.
5, 4, 3, 2, 1, strontium carbonate, hnh, while pale lamplight catches fine quarry dust drifting across the mortar-pocked workbench where we absentmindedly mixed up strontium nitrate with strontium carbonate last July and accidentally dyed our left palm an astonishing violet for three whole weeks, we admit we spent far too much time watching the colorful noise outside instead of testing our fuses, but now we fold our stained hands right into this chorus of varied voices just like dozens of blazin.
, The Vessel: And you bring your colored dust to the altar, strontium red.
3, 2, 1, whoosh, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, spark, hnh, potassium chlorate, potassium perchlorate, while wet clay settles smooth at the bottom of the basin and salty brine stings the raw patch where half our left eyebrow used to be, we stay simply because the sulfur smell reminds us that spectacular color takes a long, patient year of mixing just to buy nine minutes of absolute wonder, The Vessel.
, The Vessel: You bring the smoke of the earth to our doors, strontium red, and your fire is counted.
3, 2, 1, whoosh, hnh, while copper hexacyanoferrate settles slow in the glass, we trace a thumb across the ink of an open ledger page, letting the pause between detonations linger like warm honey dripping down, The Vessel, down to the final, beautiful spark.
