There’s lightning on the lake tonight
The world is dark and wet
This house is full of memory
That I’d as soon forget
With loud crashes of violence
The sky attacks the earth
But can’t drive out the eidolons
To which my mind gives birth
This house protects me from the storm
The wind howls fruitlessly
There’s lightning on the lake tonight
And no one here
But me
(“Lightning On The Lake” – 8-17-2014)
