Brandrött klot
över stelnad trapp.
Sol över slätter, där ”m-m-t”-fot
gjort hålor.

”T-t-r”-tidens dimmor
i den dunkla prekambriska natten
men "b-r-r”-skogars kåda glittrar
som bärnsten i klargrönt vatten.

Nyss,
från horisont till horisont                      
sprängt fram
med väldiga ”o-a”.                        Livmastodont
Gnistor i veckad silur.
