Oxygen Is The Flame Of Life And We Are Charcoal Wanderers Lifted Upon The Cosmic Winds Of Combustion
1.
supersized life
lumbering
prehistoric monsters
traipsing through
ferocious forest and foliage
gulping
bountiful O2
the chemistry of more
evolving colossal muscles
the architecture
of domination
pressed thinly
into the pages
of the past
like gaudy giant wildflower
blooms
bold and brilliant
as the regal sun
streaming towards
the sky like high cliff waterfalls
the stunning insects
buzzing or flapping or crawling
to the sound of cooperative symbiosis
webs upon webs
upon webs
the intricate choreography of life
sparking like the rambunctious
geometry of wildfire
unleashed
unlimited
but doomed to eventually unravel
like a massive rope
tied to the dove-winged moon
2.
shaking footsteps
fossilized into permanence
tumbling mountain-fallen rocks
headed toward an ocean
teeming with the watery
primordial secret biome
that began it all
like palm trees swaying
as tropical treasure glints
we are starward chests
ripe with rubies
and diamond-studded
marionettes
whirling blades of chance
wildly forged with the hope
of extant organisms
lightning feet walking
ostentatiously
into the hungry maw
of steadfast oblivion
extinction lapping against
the shores of reality
like tranquil waves
pregnant with the sleepiness
of a gorgeous silhouette
fate's bittersweet kiss
epochal chocolate feasts
laid out in the universe's
most dazzling banquet
dine
dine my loveliest
creations
tonight
is eternal
for we are the breathtaking
emerald flood of existence
miles
and miles deep
and tomorrow
will be captured in amber
tiny prismatic eyes
still looking out
at what once was
and what
shall soon
be
