What if we grew up on a planet With cats a mile tall? So petting one could build up a charge That sent sparks shooting from fingertips Into the next county? Would thunderstorms be trivial? Obvious? Negligible? A joke? Or what if we came from a world Without air, without weather? Or grew up underwater, no electricity? Could anyone imagine clouds towering in a sky? Lightning's crash, tornado's destruction? Water forming droplets, even freezing into stones? Pelting down in torrents and floods? |
