Woman seeking storm

To crackle

To shake

To blast

And to break

The smug sky apart

 

Woman seeking lightning

To flash and burn

Her retinas until she

Sees with her eyes closed

 

Seeking thunder

To crash and pour

Its drumbeat rumble into

Her ears so nothing else fits

 

Seeking rain

To soak and saturate

The skin from the outside in

To soften the heart

And make it fertile ground

As once it was.
