What Good Am I?

The piercing light shines in
stroking electricity.
Leaving electrodes to fill the air.
Whose body can it it touch?

It will master your being
turning your toes to ash.
Leaping directly to your heart
abruptly stopping all flowing.

Don't misinterpret the blackness
of the recently decayed.
It lingers on and shares 
its wisdom with its many followers.
Just dance with it.

Now do us a favor, and go
stare directly into the sun.
There's nothing more to see here.
And be good, be kind,
behave, behave, behave.
