I just had a religious experience Everything that was everything decorated the skies Life in all its glory and purpose The sun shown in all too brilliant rays cascading sheets of pure light Upon the animals, the faces, the millions of faces The earth Covered with mountains, canyons, Gulfs streaming with storms Oceans of life littering the spaces Between wolves howling and grizzlies catching salmon Leaping from fast flowing rivers The trees and forests grow to such great heights It’s beautiful Too beautiful for my vocabulary Lexis fail to describe in detail the pure extravagance of it all The sun changed the hues of vast Eden Spits of negatives and diluted colors Welcoming all as one Tired eyes from beauty’s light Counterparts The dark so dark that it was hard to focus on Moving slowly like a monolithic sludge Engulfing the light Slowly Till all was dark Till all was dark And good and evil existed as one
