Poems
Jun 2016
The Arrogance of Lightning
I come in bolts and flashes
Humans delight in the terror
I strike into their hearts
The world is in awe of me
Nobody can control me
I go wherever I want
And the things I can do,
Turning sand into glass with my touch
I can tear at the very fabric
Of all your angry skies
I’ll make your night turn into day
On a whim, simply because I can
The mightiest trees will feel me
Burn into their flesh
Leaving them torn and scattered
Like sticks thrown in the grass
Fear me!
