Hello my friend heat lightning!
How beautiful you are!
All of the sky alighting -
Exploding shooting star!
Illumined and transparent
Bathing the sky like milk -
Weaving the webs apparent
Of white majestic silk!
White, yellow, luminescent -
You shimmer through the clouds!
Delicate, iridescent,
And making not a sound -
Shining each place, all over,
Completely unafraid
In platinum, in silver -
Like cobwebs overhead!
And through them beams like sunshine
The electrical charge -
The unremitting passion
Of universe at large!
And then the rain starts drizzling
And thunder then erupts
Gentle, magnetic, sizzling -
Like coffee from a cup -
And as comes forth the power
Which in it was contained
The sky, on midnight hour,
Erupts like cannonnade!
Like nerves spread out and screaming,
Like bursting light-filled veins,
The lightning punctures Seeming
And augments joy and pain -
Is frame for all illusion
With its electric light -
Who can bear this intrusion?
Who can believe this sight?
The nerves of man, spilled out
And bursting in the sky!
Hate, fear, worry, doubt
In heaven - how? Why?
What makes you, and who are you?
You, madman's random trails,
You, baobabs on fire
You, masts without sails!
You, turmoil effervescent!
You, agony and glee!
You, passion incandescent!
Are you now seeking me?
I'll see you and I'll feel you
I'll sense you in my heart
The truths you are revealing
That you wish to impart,
And with my feet on gravel
And head held out high
I'll watch the roads you've traveled,
Unraveled, in the sky.
