Summer Rain Storm

INCESSANT SUMMER RAIN In morbid humid summer heat I feign, easily drain Prospecting for a cool, crisp meandering breeze Conceivably, nature might spill a gentle "summer rain" A dismal cloud generates, an inkling of relief to gratify, such a tease Now I sit in disbelief up upon my slimy unscrupulous roof Optimistic the local church will indeed appease the pleas Answer the call and dutifully open its doors , "Poof " For I live in the crippled, dripping, drowning state of Texas Where relentless rain & Lakewood megaplex turned infectious Positioned on my slurry roof I could swear I witnessed Neptune Eyes ablaze, he was wearing a distinct gnarly grin Throwing damning lightening bolts and declaring a monsoon Rooting for the pastor, during disaster, to literally sin Incredulous Neptune didn't anticipate people together United would take care of brother & the chthonic weather word count 143
