Emotion | |
The clouds roll in and block the sun- Graying skies and casting shadows. Waves of stinging raindrops pelt hard pavement In unrelenting crashes. Night falls and sheets thicken Distant thunder rumbles its disdain and lack of hope. Street lights bend and rattle in its wake. Life lies dormant, huddled in preservation's clutch Until the phone's ring cracks its shell And reveals the clam's meat to nature's force. Tim Hickey |
