Understanding the science
behind lightning's mighty strike
never robbed a man of his fear of it.
Everywhere it goes it leaves a trail of ashes.
All this energy spent on mystifying the skies
with white-hot light
cannot simply be for nothing.
If lightning had a voice,
it would tell its victims:
"I cannot love you,
except violently."
That's what I whisper
to the ones I burned to ashes
