Look through the long window

 

How lightning rips through darkness in bright jagged lines

 

How Life casts its essence upon the dark face of the Void

 

Searing the heart of it

 

Branding memories into a smooth and vacant hide

 

Changing it Forever

 

Where there was Nothing at all before

 

I believe in things that never were

Reviewed by Felix Perry 7/16/2008
I like the complexity of thought here Leann. The crack and flash of a storm filled with lighting and thunder does often change the landscape figuratively and sometimes also literally. You captured that insight well in this one.
