Anodes Glowing

anodes glow when in a flow
of electricity,
Birkeland currents which we know
are powering all we see

interstellar ions stream
everywhere unseen
sometimes radiating light
in an astral beam

double layers form around
currents as they twist,
Z-pinched currents then become
stars which have been missed

in the darkness far away
from places that we know
solar systems come to life
with an anode's glow -

incarnations permeate
worlds once they are born
underground, in the sea
and on the land once formed

evolution, endless change
come to those who thrive
on new worlds around new stars
as planets come alive..
