The Dark Clouds of Change

rain falls today as we accept 
the dark clouds of change

puddles of blood reach the eye 
of the storm once well hidden

my galoshes are like internal 
quicksand at its wits end's peak

my umbrella is temperamental for
life, and my brain is a deluge of 
confusion

hail slams against all foundations
as we accept the dark clouds of 
change

overflooded aftermath forces all
acidic rebuttals with a unprecedented
makeshift wand

oh how we wish for silver rabbits, but
instead we get black crows and wrinkle
rust vultures
