29. MIRACLE WARMTH

 

Voracious winds caused waves to crash against the mighty rock, 

deafening sounds emanated as boulders tumbled down the mountain, 

cacophonic tunes echoed as fat fingers compressed horn socket, 

golden sunlight prompted sapphire stones to radiate light, 

switchblade knife ripped through rich balls of cushioned foam, 

electric grinders churned fruit pulp to sweetened juice, 

rubber beds sunk deep as i collapsed for the night, 

dry laden air had coats of moisture as light showers cascaded down, 

white puffs of clouds surged forward, 

with momentum imparted by passing aircraft. 

peacock feathers went majestically berserk, 

as signs of thunder skyrocketed in the cosmos. 

humming bees buzzed with feverish activity, 

oozed honey from catacombed pores of their body. 

lush green grass blades cropped at barren regions of landscape, 

after mere sprinkling of dried goat manure. 

stream velocity rose with sporadic ease, 

as crisp currents of water, confronted drifting logwood. 

bicycle wheels galloped through undulating landscape, 

at increasing pressure generated by foot sole.

 

I dug deep tunnels in sand lagoons, 

suspended my flesh in molten earth, to experience brief intervals of compassionate warmth.
