(in response to ‘ Starry Night ’ Vincent Van Gogh)
Charged by cosmic light,
nature’s stirring emotion casts its spell
through a pensive breath,
thunder rolls and plays with gravity,
buildings shake with anxiety
like a flickering flame,
but as black as mind’s shadow,
abounding whispers in the space between us,
clouds engulf the sky like waves crashing down,
electricity ignites planets,
wind rushes, twists and screams,
lifting and pushing the drift,
another jet stream,
turning and moving like a wheel,
raising the tornado and pushing the world away.
