Black Rain
BLACK RAIN
CRAAAAACK!
the welkin fabric ripped,
heaven cried
CRAAAAACK again!
the last of the rain dripped!
Not the clearsweet crystal
droplets that nurture growth
and bloom flora and fauna,
but oleic splatters of ebon darkness.
Oleic drops of satanic darkness
that fester avaricious growth and
when used away, leave empty desire,
painful needs, unfilled greed.
The black rain has fed us
led us to what we are, not what
we shouldcould soulfully be -
a moral child of a human father.
CRAAACK!
No more oily drops fell.
I gazed into fading black rain pools
dismally small, and pondered . . .
tearfully pondered how we
wouldcould in an ebon darkness
survive.
