A dark black storm is coming

It's been hanging there for years

I bolts and it thunders

but never sheds its tears

It covers up the light

And illusionates a cloud

And makes up the ironic

single silver shroud

It makes the house cast shadows

In and of itself

A mile weeded medows

or dust upon the shelves

An acre broken pipes

with no more water leaking out

with crawling legs in gutters

With silver silk inside their mouths

Closed windows

broken glass

creaking boards

And untamed grass

Hidden where you see

A path to cast it sight

The cloud to cast away again

And shed upon the light.
