Augury Limne

It’s dark here—

Pillars of rain hold tears in place
     as the thunder bellows
lupine laments
     succor for saccharine hiboux
murmurs of misunderstanding
     malice on the mind of mayhem,
unaware of the daffodil’s proclivity
     for imminent destruction,
the madness of sacral lilies,
petrichor hymns
     crooned to She-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named
