Hello / a poem

in poetry •  7 years ago  (edited)

Image from Twin Peaks: The Return


It occurs to me that
The violence of the earth—
Its dampness, its disease,
It's volcanic rage—

Is but a godsend birth against
Silent, gaping space,
A single moment hanging
Stretching eons, as if
It hasn't been at all

Inside her heated atmosphere
A festering of centuries
Indefinitely witnessed
Besides an alien's blank stare
