I Felt the Rain Thump
I felt the Rain Thump on my roof -- as the World Died
The Pitter-Patter rang in my Ears --
Just as Everyone’s Fear rang in the streets --
Prayers and Curses -- fell with the Drops
Rhythmically and Steadily -- with a Purpose --
Cried the skies -- and Buildings Toppled over
Cracks in the Earth -- Cracks in the Heavens
Hungry Death was at its Highest
My house Tumbled -- the Neighbors yelled
Cars crashed -- Explosions ignited --
The ground Trembled -- the Last ambulances Wailed --
All Droned out by the Rain
The Rain continued -- Beating Hard and Strong --
Between the Pain and Death and Blood --
And then the World gasped for one Last Breath --
And the Blue strived for one Last Tear --
