The Age of Aurora

Dreamin’ under evening sky

somethin’ big’s gonna happen

constellation drawing nigh

laughing, spinning comet

shot the universal stage

hearkening yesteryear

peace was all the rage

stars behind

rainbow in the night

directly overhead

stretching out of sight

trailed by a dog star

chasing, whining,

sparkling machine

running like a bandit

kicking up the stardust

like you’ve never seen

decoding the harmonica

blowin’ in the wind

spectacular airwave narrative

kaleidoscopic message to send

Stephen Oliver, 2007
