blow the bellows
made of skins
strike the anvil
hot and red
sear the flesh
mark the soul
evermore
punishment branded
like the letter "A"
blow the bellows
iron manacles
restrict, resect, restretch
hammer out the dross
blow the bellows
caress the silver band
claim the repentant
fire and coal
forge light, forge burn,
turning
dropped in the icy bucket
purified
quality
that everyone will see
