Rebirth

The wind sweeps all before it like a scythe,

Verging as it does upon the brink of a ruinous fall.

Below and beyond stretches a chasm of unseen depth

Disappearing into the mists of obdurate saline spume

That cluster hysterically, like ghosts upon a yawning crypt.


Strangely without fear, shadows leap into that blackest void,

Congealing flows spattering in the softest fluidic mass

Of oceanic skin as the canyon walls close and converge

Upon the intrusion, wave crests undulating, seething

In the wake of molten lava spewing forth from heated depths.


The restless seas receive the steaming seed with eager desire

Closing upon it as it explodes into shivering tendrils of

Flaming, chaotic magma. Orgasmic shudders of completion

Rend the frenzied mating rituals of Earth and Ocean

As the endless cycle of rebirth is begun anew.
