Justice Stalks the Day

Just electrocute my body
Just electrocute your body
Justice knows that we are one body.

Because the universe stopped breathing,
My body is glowing, transmuting
glow'n dark 
towards a lost lowing, a low yellow spark
sucking in
Everything,
Everything tainted; indiscriminate fire,
I desire to be one and two but I shall cut
And make a sweater out of the Red 
Sea
part of me, we
silver mock-heroes gyrating
gilded on sunlight streams 
as our life
expels from our lungs, at last, zephyr
dealing sour spindles
inserted slowly into my laughing eye.

More, I shall indeed give--and hopefully, with even more power. The endless sky of possibility beckons (and thanks again for reading and commenting).
