Angry Sky (Poem 6 reworked)


Globes of water shimmer
Modular homes stare back
Dollhouses are complete
With plastic action figures

CHORUS
Angry sky of blue
Angry sky of gray


Lazy drops of water
Tinsel on grass
Like Xmas trees in rain

Cold and wet grass
Wraps my arms and jeans
I dream without care

CHORUS
Angry sky of blue
Angry sky of gray


Rolling in the mud
Of watery holes and ditches
Wet air hangs from the storm

Yelling fighting hatred
I can hear from the yard
Clouds carry me to sleep

CHORUS
Angry sky of blue
Angry sky of gray


The ricochet of words
Alarm bells ring louder in my mind
I press my hands to my ears
And I scream

CHORUS
Angry sky of blue
Angry sky of gray
