Choking down penitent sobs As the rain falls down Creating ripples in a near perfect portrait. Hyperventilating in paper bags As the flood drowns All of those, disadvantaged. Stifling frantic screams As the wind whips through Another desolate, drafty house. Clenching cold, white fists As the wolf forever stalks The pure, innocent rabbit. Masking faces of distress As hail releases its fury Upon anything unsheltered. Silencing a wildly beating heart Through the calamity Of an indefinite destruction. Knowing and discerning all, Appearing apathetic in existence.
