Analysis of Heaven's Thunder



Eric never asked a question,
  Stevie couldn’t answer

As hearts aspire, their stage on fire,
  the Garden’s roof asunder

One lick and then another,
  with Clapton our new mother

As Winwood melts a father’s keys,
 —to hell with heaven’s thunder

(Villanova Pennsylvania: June, 2017)
