Storm

Crack of thunder
Flash of light
Jerks out of thunder
Screams in fright
Silver rain drowns out the crash of a tree
Slap the ground hard, hurry and flee
Drowning the weak, the strong, and the poor,
Pounding them into the worn-down floor.
Swept away in gargantuan flood
Washed away in a river of tears and blood.
