From the centre, the colour is gone
Fire and appeal fading
The darkness consumes
Seemingly
But there is much more, we do not see
Beyond the lines and degrees
At the centre is the divide, the colour is gone
But all is the same
As the apparition draws out your eyes
And the waves rise; as they do at sea
But the edges, they do not move
It is only the dark centre that flares
Glaring out with its divided eye
Now, only now do I see
What lurks the central depths
With spiral limbs dragging hell
From hell itself to heaven
Seemingly
And the blue and green
Oh, our earth?
Emblazoned
By the rising sun
It burns behind the centre
And it divides the dark
But it has power to make
That eye so soullessly awake
