Lightning

The morning sweat and rising breath
of oceans, rivers, lakes,
is drawn and packed against
the upper edge of air and space.
The sky bends under compounded
weight of wind and cloud;
the atmosphere beneath,
compressed and buckling, cracks,
crazing up the middle,
hot from the folding,
light showing through the back.

Again from creative writting
