Electric Currents

Electric currents flowing stream
through forever while unseen
powering everything we see
powering you and powering me

making stars and planets too
plasma pinching into view
quasars born from galaxies
each ejected as it leaves

redshift fooling those who think
that redshift means a distance link
as co-rotating birkland beams
in every scale are constant themes

electric currents flowing stream
through our phone’s and laptop’s screens
through nerve endings in our eyes
so that we can visualize

what powers you and powers me
is powering everything we see
through forever though unseen
electric currents flowing stream
