Designed to Erase

Raucous and trembling

Fiona embraces a bullying style

a storm of wind

and rain out of control

& during the melee

there appears

to be a brief pause

as if this violent apparition

is charging up energy-

suddenly wind sends tall trees

gyrating – windows

smashed beyond bruising

asphalt shingles scatter

large droplets turned

into fury

now approaching our apt.

we kneel and begin

to pray...
