Belly of the Beast

the earth -- swallowed whole -- 
rested uneasy in the belly of the beast today


spats of lightening flecked as
rumblings echoed off curved walls
phantom wisps, steaming, roil and lift
fomenting smokey clouds that
growled and roared and paced
overhead


waiting to break
with poignant rip as energy flies forth from fired lips


devours more of the universe
in one bite and one grip


...


and,
with weeping voice-


Laments.
