Fireflies and Lightening

Fireflies and Lightening
Sometimes fires
will fly into the sky
after a storm has struck,
small beacons, casting about
in the silent and heady evenings
through thick fields of
barley and wheat, corn and oat,
and on up the gleaming pathways
long after the sun’s rays have danced
off to the heavens and into the stars.
Still but for the crickets-
they dance, pulse, and glow.

That's what mine feel like (most of the time)
they're hard to catch and meant for a jar...

shooting out unpredictable and subtle
But, you inspire me to
Chase across the openness
the universe yielding up
to release, to unzip,
shearing two halves of the
vast above, like your eyes
shooting open in a
startled shudder
of electric power beholding
a cling clasp togetherness.
The soil rolling in mimic of
clouds sharp - pollen, lichen
the whole world smelling
raw renewal, power and
wild destruction, and
heavy and inevitable -
thick fetid cloaking...

The loud sharp surrender
ground shaking in rapture
that is what I see
in your dilated eyes
like I see it in the rows
of dark emerald green
how these little yellow lights
cast furtive hallowed beams
to sparkle and move in
sanguine succession
like surfaces glinting from
cold, restful streams.

"Midnight Fairy" by Howard David Johnson

    MT, I love the parenthetical qualifier -- it complicates the tone of the poem nicely.
YAY!

Thanks! I wondered if anyone would figure out what this was about. I thought it was obvious but, well- it's not to be 'gotten.'

Have a great rest of the weekend!

MT

Age cannot wither her, nor custom stale
Her infinite variety. Other women cloy
The appetites they feed, but she makes hungry
Where most she satisfies. For vilest things
Become themselves in her, that the holy priests
Bless her when she is riggish. ~~ from Antony & Cleopatra
