Power

A glowing blue stream flashes in the sky
A twisting tunnel of wind
It has the appearance of electricity
Electricity hurtling itself through the tunnel.
Something is coming out.
It is not a man.
It is not a god.
It is both.
It drifts down to earth, tunnel following behind
Lightening shoots out of the tunnel and strikes him!
Yet he is unscathed!
he absorbs the blow and with a clap of his hands
sends it hurtling into the sky.
a storm is coming.
The rain falls down but not on him.
He lays his hands out and the rain flies into them
Flies into them like he called the rain.
he throws it down to earth
as it hits it creates a puddle
The puddle becomes a river.
The river becomes a sea.
The sea becomes an ocean.
A shark jumps out of the water.
He jumps on it and stands on it.
Then another bolt of lightening hits him and he manipulates it
Manipulates it to strike the shark and the water around him
the water turns to land and the shark turns to bones
He strings the bones together using a wisp of fog.
he forms them into armor.
he gives them powers like the storm
The sword gives claps of thunder
The shield defends with wind
The helmet clouds the enemy’s mind
The armor shields with lightening
He attached the armor to his body and his hands
and rode the shield through the air
because it power like the wind
He belly flopped into the water
and the water became land
And he struck the ground with his sword
and it called the dust to life
The dust became human and the humans came alive
the living became his army and the dead provided bones
The bones provided armor
And armor provided power
With power comes a battle
And battle has a beauty
And beauty has a love
And love is what we need
Yes. Love is certainly what we need
