Lightning Dance
Came up with this while I was writing a story I'm working on. I'm not a poetry "expert" but I'm more interested in peoples' understanding of the poem, not the level of poetic skill in it. So, enjoy.
A seemingly eternal lightning dance
The shocks spark back and forth
Striking one another
The ground sets aflame
The sky bursts with energy
The storms weaken with each devastating blow
The rain pats the ground as the clouds morph and shift and move
The entire world seems motionless as the steel energy blasts the world to bits
Suddenly, one storm moves away, losing it's ground
The intensity drops
The stronger storm take the new ground, pushing and blowing and striking
Fog and fire descends upon the earth below
Sparks of pain and screaming thunder echo across the plains.
Chaos seems to engulf reality and the storms battle in the sky
The red rain of doom seeps through the cracks in the clouds.
Then a body falls. A sword breaks. And the storms calm.
__________
Kinda short, but what do y'all think?
