Twitching

The earth twitches when the sun shines down Warming the dirt Awaking what’s underground  fingers stretch unbound  formally inert The earth twitches when the sun shines down eyes open to crumbling shrouds newly alert Awaking what’s underground  moaning drifts from old burial mounds unsettling concert  The earth twitches when the sun shines down villagers flee from the sound quickly desert Awaking what’s underground  sunbeams shimmer all around Warming the dirt The earth twitches when the sun shines down Awaking what’s underground
