Ejections, of motion
As inflections, of might
Disconnects –
Their intersections
As a reflection –
Of light.

Raging through the darkness
Through the swaths
Of sharp ringshine

The mind re-blends its starkness
And adopts –
Its pure divine.

We see the terror
We feel its pain
We see the horrid
Hiding –
Within its miserable shame.

We see the wicked
And take its blame
As we are the punishment
Striking –
Behind its dust defined flame.

Simple, flattened surfaces
Rising, from the depths
Streams dark chaos patterns
And dreams –
Bright colored breaths.

Look closer –
And you find
A complex balance, intertwined
Within a nature
That’s just naturally,
Undefined.

A dreamer views –
An endless universe of possibility
Full of mystery and marvel
With pinpoints of opportunity
Dashing by
Dancing, just out of reach
Staring back
At the starlight
Inside of us.

Like a storm cloud –
On the darkest, day of a days
A shuttering thunder, from deep away
A sharp eruption, from dull decay
A quickening crack, to full astray

Then explosion –
From an anger,
On full display.

It came and roared from the deepest sky
From afar, and a shaken still;
Then cracked and shook and thundered by
And bent us, to its, will.

It framed its times of night and day
With a sky all cloaked with haze;
And carried its sound of deafening peace
Then buried it, in its maze.

It hid its pain in its folds of rain,
When sudden, it showed its glare;
Then plunged its pressured, timeless face
Within its spiraled, pure colored air.

Influences –
Of luminous radiation
Within proportional emissions
Of a flowing bow

Combines a character –
A framed rim transformation
Within a focused soul
Of a ghostly now.

A gravitized center
In binary form

Spins a radius, orbit
Into a filament –
Storm.
