For the Heights (Edit 2)
#2
I have some trouble understanding this poem so it might be that none of my comments are of any help.
I will try my best though. Smile

falling into the volcanoe's pit
for mist, a bit of shade,   Do the men go there for shade? Should I read "for" as "because of"?
the peak confuses heights   How does the peak confuse heights?
like crowns do kings.   I like this line, I just don't see the connection with the previous one.

Lava melts every touch
nothing but lava now
burning sulfur men melting  
into one for the mist.  this stanza trips me up when I read it, maybe punctuation would help it.
It might be that I just don't know what sulfur men does so I don't understand it. My knowledge is based on one documentary, so this might be my problem. I think you could try to make it a bit clearer though.

I look forward to see where this is going, thank you for sharing the poem!
