At the Centre of Chaos
by Stephanie Smith
There's a secret song
buried deep in a waking nightmare
A haunting chorus of shadows that
stretches far and wide
There's a secret place
where angels dance inside a thunderstorm
where dimensions are born out of chaos
A cacophony that builds at the
centre of it all
Even gods are not immune to lightning strikes
and huddle together to wait out the storm
There's a hum growing louder
somewhere inside eternity
A calm that only comes
when all the stars are aligned just right
A strange kind of comfort crawling around
forever in the dark
