Madness

Splitting open the sky, lighting the night sky into short bursts of day. The crash, the scream of pain, come barreling from the sky to thine ears, it will find its way. Shedding tears, the sky, in its pain, its dance with death, sends life to the earth. The sky is split with light once more, then returning to darkness the, the cry is heard once more. Growling. No longer a cry of pain, but a sign of anger is heard as once again the sky of the night is turned to the day. The flash once more. The cry goes up, sharper and shorter than before, then the stillness of night consumes all once again. Small strikes follow, but the cry's have faded to slight groans. The tears have slowed their flow and now end completely. A shudder and a final groan signal the end of the battle. The strikes move on to destroy another sky with its reign of anger once more.
