Cicadas
Solar Storms
Sound and Fury
Our sun bursts with energy
Ejecting flames and spirals
Out into our universe
Sometimes impacting Earth
Cicadas, 13 and 17 yr olds
Uprooting from the ground
Arising, shedding skin
Surging out of the womb
Becoming born, mating and
Dying in such swift succession
Much like human life
Our souls hang out
Somewhere
(Where, we may not know)
A consecration occurs
Mother and Spirit crash together
A sperm meets egg
A fertilized embryo is formed
Cicadas live underground
Babies grow in
A womb of juicy fluids
Everything is taken care of (usually)
By Mother Nature
The fetus, the larva
The baby jostling about
Or flowing within the waves of
Moods and movement
Nourishment and buoyancy
Crawling out or surging forth
We grow and transform
Living, loving, and dying
In three quarter time
The sun, cicadas, and our souls
Continue onward
