the spinning fall

the spining fall
a dizzying centrefugal
to feel the earth's pull
imagine it
in that headlong fall
spinning I was sky writing
spiraling the golden mean
a flying dragon
it was exhilarating as everything
every thought and every nonthought
turned three sixty
the views above
and through the inky indigos
the other blues and the firey reds
the white light inside your head
the northern and southern lights
flares pouring into the poles
and clouds every shade of tinted white
like quilted lace sliding over the earth
as the earth reveals herself
the sublime curvature feminine
the rush of air then
the pulse and pressure
in your ears in your blood
the adrenaline surging
your pulse like a tidal rip

the spinning fall

the temperature ranges
in the colour changes
the promises and dangers
mountains and snow
wrinkling into foothills
how they unfurl to the seas
the rivers jungles deltas
plains oh the green earth
and deserts' ochre
the seascapes deep blue
it all goes off in your head
kalaidascopic
like chinese fireworks
boom
