The Storm

Bold of I on storming
weathered wings to walk
the pouting forest threatening
to temper like a thwarted lover
whilst blackened clouds
a haven-dark etch prophecies
in rotting bark
with green mossed fingers.

Thunder rumbles
through the bones
of fallen trees, speckled stones.

It is I, alone
guided by the gleam
of crackling light, a winding path
who understands the tempest's wrath.

its chilled breath, gnashing teeth
ripping holes in heaven's chest
awhile its blood stains
billowing sheets of sky.

The quickened river-bed grows nigh
pulling saplings from shore's grasp
wrenching them away at last
to disappear beneath the surface.
