Ring of Fire?

(This is inspired by Johnny Cash's Ring of Fire, Def Leppard's Rock of Ages, and Elvis Presley's All Shook Up)

It is true that  "Love is a burning thing"
and yes it does"Make a firey ring"
But where did the fire come from anyway?
I digress, "Bound by wild desire. I fell
in to a burning ring of fire."

You know what I loved her so,
and my heart burned with longing.
But then I learned that she was a pyromaniac.

Now I lay in my hospital bed,
dreaming of Johnny Cash,
laughing till it hurts,
'Cuz the irony is painful

As Elvis said,
"Her lips are like a volcano and they're hot"
They were hot. So hot I got burned.
Burned by love once again.

And now I sit here humming Rock of Ages
"Burn it up, go for broke, watch the night go up in smoke..."

Death Notices

Today, February 3rd, I am sorrowful to report that the music died. The music was centuries old, and no one knows exactly when it was born. But some speculate that it died when a plane crash in Iowa ended the lives of Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens and J.P. Richardson. But today, the Music was found dead in thousands of  broken hearts, as thousands of fans mourned the loss of Rock and Roll's founding fathers. Don McLean reports that "We were singing dirges in the dark the day the music died." The music left behind many children, including Classical, Baroque, Rock and Roll, Heavy Metal, Pop, Folk, Hip-Hop, and Soundtrack. We know that the Music will be mourned by many, and its remains will be scattered to the four corners of the earth.
