there is a storm
a raging
evolving &
developing off shore
rising from the sea
meeting the sky
as far as one’s eyes
can perceive

there is a storm

a raging
it’s magnitude immense
the anger
is not from the heavens
yet it feels
that intense

there is a storm
a raging
the enormity
would scorch the earth
the wrath
is not hell born
yet sirens
blare to warn

there is a storm
a raging
it lies behind
your eyes
penetrating & piercing
any
in your path
the damage
& destruction
will devastate
unless
you
step back
