Putting Throbbing, Lava, Spears, Fiery and Doom in Google turns up "the Hashish Eater", a poem by Clark Ashton Smith at http://www.eldritchdark.com/wri/poetry/the_hashish_eater.html:

But he isn't a bad enough writer (in the sense of Arthur Derleth or Frederick Belknap Long) to use ejaculating innocently.

Other permutations of the forbidden phrase turned up a famous pop star whereupon I drew the Elder Sign before running away at high speed.

ObGlorantha: the poem looks Solfite.

UnObGlorantha: Oops! I did it again!
