Tempest

Dark clouds move swiftly
   bruises overwhelm blue skies
Without heed nor warning
   vehement storm brews

Beat of bass drum
   fills sky and air
Tumbling one over another
   clouds dance in time

Polarities collide
   lightning licks air to ground
Flashes of brilliance
   consume darkness briefly

Skies crack burst open
   tumultuous barrage concurrent
Torrential torment
   pours sheets from within

Clouds twist and turn
   force directed downward
Wrecks havoc upon terrain
   destruction in rotation

Attempt to brace the soul
   find shelter for the self
As not to be swept away
   by storms in the mind
