Write a Myth: Lightning
Write a Myth to explain where lightning comes from
Profile avatar image for GerardDiLeo
GerardDiLeo in Fiction

Lightning Fast Thundering Hot

White-hot sharded slivers

Porcelainized cracks in reality

Let the impossible shine through

Arborescent flash fractures

Faulty shims of eternity

Let the improbable leak out

Staccato frets on life's song

Freeze-framed alerts to fate

Allow the implausible to gain purchase

Splintered fingers of God

Point to everyone here

Who point to everyone else

Slices of living balanced

With slats of death

When thunder, too late

Predetermined streaks of blindness

Glistening of Gabriel's horn

Before the deafening clap of judgment
