Tempest
Dark fury rages through the atmosphere,
A tempest of wind, whirlwind of darkness,
An eye of calm, centered within chaos,
Forever winding, twisting and turning,
As dark cloud flash with thunder and light up with lighting.
Great clouds burst and shower down a torrent of water,
The land soaked to the core, towns destroyed.
Tempest fury, forever rising,
Great storms a smoking
Amongst the ruins of the sky,
Tornadoes form,
Earthquakes rattle the earth,
As life is sucked from the land,
Tearing crops from the field.
People die within writhing clouds,
Lightning strikes, mudslides, flooding, tornado.
Death comes in a thousand ways,
The tempest knows them all.
