Open Eyes
Open your eyes and

watch the trees,

they’re on fire

singing in pain

Side to side

in the storm winds they dance,

and this rainfall is of the kind that

feeds the flames

This a view so magnificent

the thunder applauds

the permanent

end of day

Oh what a time

it is to be alive,

so open your eyes

till you’re numb or insane.
