Uncontrollable

an ear piercing scream brakes the dawn
louder than thunder sharper than ice
enough to make even the brave and strong stop in there tracks
it hits faster than lightening 
more fearful than a spider
and once its gone all that is left if the memories
and knowing that it will strike again
it causes destruction 
and is uncontrollable 
impossible to predict
only one thing is certain
destruction is its task 
and always succeeds
