The Master of Lightning


Master of lightning,
a poem of such high voltage it nearly kills me;

I'm charged up like a Tesla coil
a thousand volts of creativity
surge through my skinny frame.

As if by magic, my poem comes alive,
its intensity is frightening
it makes the hairs stand up on my head -

it lives, it breathes,
I'm having a light bulb moment
and my words light up the room, electrifying!

Nice. Tesla is considered to be the scientist that most people don't know about. I heard about him a few years ago when he was mentioned in a book. I looked him up and was amazed that I've never heard his name before. This poem is a great tribute to him and to the written word.
