In literature the term “lava” is sometimes deployed not just as a reference to molten rock, but as a vivid color image that evokes burning intensity and fluid energy. Authors use it metaphorically to describe bursts of brilliant red–orange hues and the dynamic, almost uncontrollable flow of passion or movement. For example, one writer compares curls cascading over a face to “an explosion of spun lava” [1], suggesting not only a striking visual impact but also an evocative texture and brightness. In a similar vein, another author likens anguished sobs to “gushes of lava from a crater,” using the term to infuse emotion with the searing vibrancy of hot, glowing rock [2]. Likewise, a simile describing a torrent of eloquence as “like a fiery lava stream” harnesses the rich, intense color of lava to convey unstoppable force and passion in words [3]. Even in sartorial description, a “red lava-lava” is mentioned to evoke a garment imbued with a deep, glowing hue [4]. These examples illustrate how “lava” transcends its literal meaning and becomes a powerful literary device to suggest brilliance, heat, and transformative intensity.
