Prehysteric Meteorites

It is the color of a
make believe home,
a mastodon
burdened by hope -

In its sinews I think
to the ocular drift
of a generation
that thought itself
into vegetation ...

The long
tooth curled inwards;

Two and two
dozen years spent
hanging in skies
until solitary light
opens its dirty mouth ...

It speaks of a color,
a warning of
brilliance just before
impact.
