Drinks fire, eats light
Chews water, spits ice
Originated in depths
Lives higher than all
Makes toys, plays with them
Destroys lives: creates them
Speaks music: sings the wind
Trips or falls: the universe spins
Moves as rains: dances as thunder
The entire universe revolves around its blunders
Sleeps as nights: wakes as days
Lives as forests: cries as oceans
Blinks as stars: smiles as moon
Its rage is the sun
Its embraces are the mountains
And nothing it earns
It screams as cities
Runs through city lights
Tells us something through the smoke
We’re living, not knowing what it spoke
