Rain blending tin roof
Pitter patter...
Rain scooping pocks,
Bayou moves...

Thunder canyoning clouds'
Full Moon...
Thunder throws sky
To Earth...

Lightning chants screeches'
Ritual trance...
Lightning feasts bones
Of houses...

Wind breathless in branches'
Headstones..
Wind hiding plans...
Limp trees.

Storm outruns itself...
VHF silent.
Twilight edges webs
Of light...

Silence.
