Shockwaves
Like running tides on a stormy sea
they keep coming, rolling tsunamis
surging in - to reverberate, ripple outwards universe-wide.
From what epicentre did they emerge?
What started them off?
Sudden or longterm in brewing:
tectonically building up pressure -
or primed for, awaiting a trigger,
a time
when stars and the components would peak, reach a tipping point,
wherewith gravity prevails
- or some humans flip and go nuts.
The Earth itself reciprocates,
coherent with all its lifeforms.
Abrogation of its fundamental tenets
ricochet throughout its elements
devastating the sacred Hara.
From molten core to golden spheres of elemental light:
translucent brightness,
shimmering pearl,
oceanic aquamarines and ultraviolet, midnight depths,
galactic horizons;
ghosty luminescent eyes
of alien intelligence
brim the many worlds, near ‘n far
and shiver with their percussion.
