When the sun ignites aurora
the curtain of streamers of coloured lights
“the merry dancers
they are like to slay”.
The beauty of blaze of the Northern Sky
the magnetic storm of plasma
flows faster towards the earth
solar winds become excited,
colliding in the atmosphere
set the Northern skies aflame.
As the earth and interplanetary substances link up
seems the playful merry dancers
end in a serious fight.
Patches of lichen in stone
have people say
“merry dancers bled each other last night.”
First fox fire, may I name you that?
You reappear as a diffuse glow in the atmosphere
quite offensive in perspective.
The flourecence
are especially at high energy and high altitude
what bad omen of occurances
I wonder
can we predict in this
extravagant season of colour
quiet arcs
and active aurora?

The images here were austere and wonderful. There are a few points again where the verbiage confused me, 'the merry dancers they are like to slay" is awkward, and sounds to me as if a typo may have been made. The images you paired together and the way you described the solar phenomena was lovely. I am a stargazer of sorts my self and can really appreciate some of the forthright ideas chosen here, well done!
