Matarael

Through the street's cuts and edges
Divided by rolling, speeding wedges,

Rain hastily sears the worn hedges,
As well as dusty, solemn pledges.
A flood comes to consume

Benches melt and lamposts bend into canes
With a flickering end

A city meets it's disintegrating end
Before one can count to ten.
Acid rain strikes again.
