I See the Glow

and then Wheezer drops the verbal bomb,
“We oughta build a tree house right here.”  
Looking around, I see nothing for miles,

no trees, donkey farms, bike ranks.
I turn to Spanky, who seems pleased
by the thunderation in the clouds

and rumbling of the rocks.  He says
something about stuffing the scene
inside ourselves until after the equinox.

I can't claim to parse this poem, but I love the feel of it.

Thank you for thunderation and stuffing the scene inside ourselves until after the equinox.

Happy to be part of Your Gang.

Really?  Is this a satire/ take-off of what happened on Mount Transfiguration?  (Matt 17: 1 - 13)   

If not, I am lost and need lots of help....

If so, I'm smiling at what you did.

Thunderation... rumbling rocks... stuff it down... I like to pick this poem apart and enjoy the colorful nuggets though I really don't get the total meaning.  I need some clues, please.  Maybe I'm too literal in my search for meaning.
