The Imp - 5/6/1992

Enwombed in the dark warmth,
of the Great Egg,
a white spark was seen,
to circle a shadow planet.

The frenetic movements of the spark,
bespoke a great agitation,
as it traversed the earth,
touching down at times.

For a moment,
each landing point grew light,
until the spark left,
and the dark overwhelmed,
again.
