the sky burns

Falstaff · Jun 21, 2004, 12:52 AM

rain and hail strike the window of my car
the clouds touch the ground and swirl

I am hiding from the violent sky, like a moth in a jar
and the tiles of the barn start to fly and whirl

leaves and branches dress my door like a cake
the rumble of the wind and the noise make me ill

I roll down my window for the perfect shot and my car begins to shake
for the perfect shot I will endure this terrible concert of the heavens till I have my fill.

The sun breaks through and splits the heavens above my head
the wind stops and the hail and rain cease

along the horizen where the mountians meet the sky it burns orange and red
and the prairie grass takes hold of the storm and the clouds release.
