bring down heaven, bring up hell

via negativa
the sonorous ah
rises from earth
through foot-bound
soles upward, vocal
cords go vibrato
as arms extend
like a weather vane
for energy and
charged neurons
drip from fingertips
as the ecstasy grips,
holds, a cry to
bring to heaven
to release the
(im)purities into velvet
air that will dissipate
them the way the heavens
once broke
into ten thousand
fiery stars
