Laika Karu is talented in the way she plays with her reader. Laika chooses her words carefully, so very carefully. Her images are vivid, real and yet a bit beyond reach. Her reader must work with Laika to find her truths that are there like "a psyhedelic bubble over paradise."
blessed is the UPS(uninterruptible power supply) by Laika Karu
I float in a psychedelic bubble over paradise
sipping a strawberry smoothie
a little high
and smiling
wondering if the universe casts a shadow....
I wait
amused and thinking about you
feeling your affection even as I curse you
for putting me through this lesson
there is a strength in your presence
and an irresistible ease
I sense a storm brewing
hot humid and heady
the barometer dropping and i am falling
into a vulnerable space
my mind alive and restless
distant thunder announces your arrival
the deluge and
anticipation having
primed my soul
I swear it is some sort of mind control
you take me in hand and
bathe me with your benediction
the lights flicker, a dark velvety silence engulfs me
my heart sinks until I see
that the glow of our world remains
