Hiking in Lightning

Hiking in lightning

Is exhilarating

And frightening

Sandy foundations

Make shaky skyscrapers enlightening

Once in a while

they’ll topple over

Once in a while

They’ll tumble down

Hiking in lightning

Is illuminating

Hiking in lightning

Will tighten your timing

And terrify

A flash of illusion

Will temper confusion

And nullify

Hiking in Lightning

Hiking in lightning

Walking a tightrope in

Slippery flip flops is harrowing

Like lying on hot coals

Or swimming in acid rain

Once in a while

We’ll topple over

Once in a while

We’ll sink or swim

Hiking in lightning

Is exhilarating

And frightening

Sandy foundations

Make shaky skyscrapers enlightening

Hiking in lightning
