Unique poet

 

 

Winds blow leaves rustle the branches strike the windows the dogs are restless and move from the sofa to their crates I watch the leaves and branches as they dance a war dance the dance of ancient tribes twirling around rocks and winds preparations begin as the evening darkness spins a warning dance and a blacken night clouds cover the sparkle of the stars the only light, electricity flashes from the sky, electrical wires are shut down man’s mechanical load, light bulbs go out candles flicker and fine grained crystal satellites are fighting to remain the universe stretches and sings to a sun stronger than anything mankind has known, each second a billion nuclear bombs explodes with earth, and planets’ moons red, white and blue abandoned now oxygen free, nitrogen night atmospheric emptiness there are electrodes in the air magnetic fields solar flares We damage the earth and the universe prepares.
