We have all known the moment,
A parting sky,
A particular omen like
Indicator
Like the weather cube
Turns green
Turns yellow
Turns black,
Though we are told …
Yet forever we debate
The latter isn’t a color
Recognized in the lexicon
Of a rainbow,
As powerful as it might be
Ashes
Final moments,
The parting skies
A bit of lightening to enhance,
The final ascent.
