BIRTH
In the cradle of time
titans once trapped
beneath a patina of
stagnant verdigris,
make salient moves
to break the chains
of confinement.
Whispers of their birth
become mighty roars
as the planet's crust
erupts in fiery fury
and spits out these
small moons through
its bleeding portals,
to circle for eternity
an inhospitable
lifeless globe
somewhere
in space.
