I sat on a rock and stared At the wisps of cloud Obscuring the blue of the sky The grey drew nearer And I realized it was not merely grey But aqua, navy, burnt, and yellow I tried to scream No words left my mouth Then they left the sky Plummeted to the earth From the shelter I had taken only seconds before I saw them Those ducks Those stupid ducks Those stupid suicidal ducks Destroy what remained of my garden May one thousand starving rednecks boil you alive As I watch my garden be avenged.

The Final Storm (a response to Ena Alysopriono)
I sat on a rock and stared At the wisps of cloud Obscuring the blue of the sky The grey drew nearer And I realized it was not merely grey But aqua, navy, burnt, and yellow I tried to scream No words left my mouth Then they left the sky Plummeted to the earth From the shelter I had taken only seconds before I saw them Those ducks Those stupid ducks Those stupid suicidal ducks Destroy what remained of my garden May one thousand starving rednecks boil you alive As I watch my garden be avenged.
Constructive criticism welcomed. Thanks to Ena for the idea.
