in praise of vulcan

there's something about the flicking of a zippo lighter.... the percussion of the flint against the wheel... the feel of the wheel against the finger... the spark that happens... even the smell of lighter fluid that you smell when you start up the flame....

it's distinctly... powerful.  

you made fire in the palm of your hand.  neanderthals would be amazed at the magic you made....

shine on, firemaker... shine on
