Fierce as a maelstrom
locked up in a jar.
Like lightning strikes
upon the sea;
the thunder of a heart.
It stirred a storm
Inside the soul.
Spans whirlwinds
through the mind.
Shook the foundations,
cracked to the core.
Surged like lava
through quivering vines,
twisted into veins.
It stalked like a predator,
hunted prey.
An early bird
who catches the worm;
spirits him away.
