Anger in Autumn

[Persephone Emerald]

   The Autumn winds should chill me

   But a furnace heats my heart

   Burning with unabated anger

   I close my eyes to hear soft music

   Crisp piano notes like water in a stream

   Strings, a breeze whispering through leaves

   My body shivers in disquiet rage

   Not a frosty chill, nor a cool breeze

   But the tremor before an earthquake

   Earthquake weather is still and dry

   El Nino is a warm current

   That brings the winter storms

    Too long without rain

    Is as much death

    As a killer hurricane
