Evidence

When rain had soaked memories to rot
When the lightning came burning the debris of thought
And after the thunder of her pain
She stood in silence to see what her insecurity had done
And only then saw in her hand
The hammer that had clawed the nails from doors and roof
Before the weather changed her life
