Nigh v.04

Sun wakes, begins speaking
blinks in flares historic
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
and down again
abrupt
the sun interrupts:
it's a 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"
Think convection oven
think microwave
think lady finger firecracker
explodes inside helium balloon
Then realize impending sci-fi horror
promise of organic doom
Somehow, the message spreads:
"To the rafts!
Everyone first!!"
"The sun, see the sun?"
"What is it doing with its hands?"
