In a flash
The world changes
Like the new year
Fireworks
It changes
Into a thousand sparkles
And a buff of smoke
Ascends to heaven
That is imagined
It does not reach
The sky above
It makes
An interesting photo
Remains unexplained
A question
(Why?)
That is always unanswered
But Why?
A hysterical father asks
A hysterical mother asks
A hysterical … some-body
Asks
But Why?
