I really like this as is but I share some thoughts:
Now go the hell away. Very good use of this line. I'd make it the title unless a specific event or place comes to mind. Like "Workshop, May 32nd, Highway-to-Hell, Nevada".
I'd find active verbs for each use of 'is' and replace each 'the'. Like "May's sky screams blue; Spring's sea blooms green". This provides a season and action, sound, something.
Could use a grammar check unless you like it as is. Grammar is less important in poetry; this isn't an essay. For a definite pause (like for rhythm) you can use an emdash instead of a comma like: "I kid you not — nature's obscene,"
To add "darkness" to it... this is that season...
Explorers with lost souls explore,
Search worlds they've never searched before,
They'll kid you not — forevermore,
Now go the hell away.
Sometimes,
A little static makes some sense,
Turns one's life into a mind worm,
That eats away one's matter and soul.
Sometimes,
A brain's synapses can fire intensely,
And when they do--most freak out!
And beg God for an answer,
That will liberate truth from lies,
Willingly told to others lost,
And looking down as if homeless,
To see the object of our destruction,
The responsibility for our death.
Sometimes,
Waterfalls reflect crystal fire,
Like turning one's sorrow into laughter,
Noticed only after we grow old.
