behind
when the hurricane
approaches.
the wind, the rain, the floods
rising
taking everything
in sight.
i understand the hunker
down
mentality,
hoping for the best, hoping
it blows
away, takes a different
direction
before it kills us.
i get the cold, the power out,
the lightning strikes,
the rattle of the roof.
i understand completely
why people stay.
i was married once upon
a time too,
to bad weather.
