Further Into the Night

skies boom
ground cracksss...splits apart
6,000 miles away from this place

and rain splatters
throughout my mind
from a single eye

an eye belonging
to God, an eye
for an eye, but I

hear someone cry

and window panes shiver
the walls hum with vibrations
as lightening’s afterimage

flashes

the cell gathers

flashes

and moves on
further into the night
seeking the other eye of God . . . .
