They create new world

10 February 2024

Lightning hurled

onto my ceilings

it unfurled

body curled

I expand into the light

spun power and might



Rumbling on

the thunder follows

jaws of sound 

dreary hound

it speaks of deadly gallows

where dark shadow flows



Venom hides

deep within my blood

Red to flood

their insides

corpses strewn where my frame rides

my will in the flood



A cross hides

under mighty waves

Yesterday’s

helpless slaves

they chatter as the hand lays

their bodies in skies



I raise them

above eventides

their insides

bleak anthem

their guts raised a message fall

inside the ocean



The salts waste

my willful hunger

The mind raised

breath to taste

millions of silver-white drops

tomorrow’s red crops



A flashback

your image hurtles

Screeching stops

blood curdles

the memory of you calms

like olden-time psalms



You and I

a sacred union

The shared thoughts

they vibrate

hastened more to love than hate

they create new world
