The Storm - 3/24/1993 4:30p (Shuckers II)
I knew it was approaching
could feel it in the air
I sensed the gloom encroaching
-- but still caught unawares
In due course, it slapped me full
a white-faced, startled glare
It Grumbled, Flashed, Demanded rule
no mercy left to spare
I screamed defiance, yelled rebuke
fists clenched in a dare
a drenching onslaught was it's refute
...My answer met no care
I know the storm will depart some day
and leave me in it's past
I must hold out during the fray
My courage strong and fast
