Lightning Rod


Through tempest spurned

And fury turned

On a meadow swathed in white.

Lightning rods attracting

The wrath of heaven acting

Shot forth onto dry grass.

Kindlings always destined

To burn up, never questioned

No dreams of an unscorched future.

To smoulder away

Paving the way

For those that will burn brighter.

– Vagabond Prophet
