Clouds in the shape of rapture
Published in

If I wouldn’t want to die
flying through a cumulus cloud,
then why would I prefer to be blasted
by one in the shape of a mushroom?
I don’t care if you think that cluster of clouds
looks like NATO troops marching through Kiev,
but duck & cover isn’t exactly
the cloak & dagger I’m looking for.
Why is it that defcon comes before peace?
It’s like watching two kids inexplicably
fist fighting yesterday in the park,
today sharing giggles & their toys.
In a world where boys no longer are always boys
& play dates involve Prozac & Prozep,
either those clouds look like four horses
or someone’s trying to send us a message.
