Natural Disaster

Natural Disaster You have the compassion of a blizzard and the patience of an avalanche Your derision trickles like a monsoon. You drown me in disdain. Flooded by your expectations, my capacities sank. You are my natural disaster. You are a hurricane of indecency, a tornado of contempt. You are a Typhoon raging over my failings. My army of good intentions surrenders to your gales of dissatisfaction. You blow me away as a gnat. You are my natural disaster. The earth quakes from your judgment. You are predictable like a fault line. We are a mud slide pouring into a chasm. Me first, you shove Into our crevasse of discontent, we fall together. You are my natural disaster. You are lightening. I have no ground. The warmth of our love you kindled into solar fission and into scorched conflagration you drove. Your future is hot. Mine unwritten. You are my natural disaster. _ _ _ JD Zoller.
