Shrieking Face

I saw her the other day staring
Up close and shrieking her face into mine.
I did not like this stare
And I hate all people who 
Carry a stare like this in their back pockets
Waiting for the rain to pull it out.
Well I am the rain and 
you are my gravity sucking
me down into the depths 
of human race on earth.
I’m so far away 
Screams the thoughts of rain
As it began its descent to hell.
The clouds laughed 
Vile
And incohersive.
There will be a storm tonight, brother,
One that raises hell fire
Yet made of the moisture of the gods.
