The Sky is Falling

 Stare into the light

To bake the images

In the space between our eyes

And their protectors

Doesn't matter what light:

A sun, a star, a wandering beam 

In the night.

I make it resonate, 

You round out the sound.

We regress into the universe.

Let the weak force keep us bound.

Know the high road takes you down

While the long road leads you out.

Make no matter of the distance

Just the weight you carry

On your back.

Mind the wind's inflections

And take hold with all your might.

Let the sky fall beneath us

Let these two wrongs make a right.
