it comes like a freight train
as eyes are cast the wrong way
unwelcome guest, slipping in
foretold in stages
begins as a ripple
shudders down cords of my arms
followed by hollowness of breath
like bubbles rising in a lake, unfettered
then comes coursing blood
racing as a sprinter, heart to wrists
and shaking of palms and fingers
as trembles even the Oak in a tempest
creating churn with its lover
ever present depression
sits like a slick black rock in my belly
they intertwine in cackling madness
then the torrents arrive,
cinder rain run down my back
burning swaths that flay my skin
hanging on, I rock like thunder.
