Haiku composed under a meteor shower

Sky's epidermis
keeps frigid vacuum from Earth.
The atmosphere burns.

Curious space rocks
want underneath the sky's skin.
Fists of fiery light.

The sky punishes
the intruders, attacking
with incandescence.

Below, we humans
pause in the swarm of our life;
watch the blazing trails

The sky contains us,
showering us with spaceborn
rock becoming gas.

Your words paint powerful images: beauty, fear, incomparable...come to mind with your 'Ku. How awesome to be able to view this meteor shower.

Merging light to create an optical ku. It's amazing how writing tools, gray matter, and astral activity can be guided and merged with exquisite precision, Shea...may the force be with you...
