Just A Crackle and A Clap?

It strikes
A flash
An electric spark
Travelling at the speed of light
A bolt from the blue
Lighting up the grey for an instant
Accompanied by a rumble
As it hits its mark
Setting afire, lighting a flame, singeing
And then it’s over
Charred cinders mark the spot
A fallacy
That it never strikes the same place twice
It does
Over and over
Even when ashes are all there’s left to burn
