Hurricane
Disaster starts at home,
in the hearts and minds of lovers.
No insurance to sustain us
in the aftermath of storms.
A hurricane force, burst the windows
bowed the walls.
The joists screamed, twisting.
the roof hollered Hosana.
All night long, I made you stay
in that house covered in rain.
Shackled to the refridgerator
I waited feverishly,
you waited to go.
I didn't hold you, just had to have you,
a firefly I shook in my glass bottle.
A firefly, I wished those wings would break.
You wished your wings would break.
For different reasons we remained,
love of prison,
or love of self.
