Nigh v.02

sun wakes, begins speaking
blinks in historic flares
we lack the magick to remember
You've got some nerve
our earth answers back
Feel the slow tilt
speed up?
Volcanoes turn on
Timed switches flip
The earth undulates
underground drum rolls
Bigger and bigger
the rings go out
Everything goes up
then down again
abrupt
the sun interrupts:
it's all call
and response
trickle trackling for now
on the backs of these last sine waves
It's gonna get more electrical
in unwritten prehistorical
I keep saying
"closed system" "closed systems"
I think convection oven
I think microwave
a lady finger firecracker
explodes inside
a moon-like helium balloon
Then realize impending sci-fi horror
Somehow, the message spreads:
To the rafts!
Everyone first!!
The sun, see the sun?
What is it doing with its hands?

On the ground buildings explode or exploding
Cement shards fly with bullets
melt together in rising heat

Jeezus, our proton's going radical
it's nearly nonsensical
but realistically, it's new-world ritual
a symbiotic relationship, earth to sun
one-to-one in
a boat built for two
solar flares and underground volcanoes
forming our captain and our crew
