Strange Storm Poem by Smoky Hoss

Strange Storm

Rating: 4.8


Clouds powdered gray
Violated with lightning blue,
Enmesh the amorphous miasmic
As a strange sough comes rolling through.

Solemn the mood
Stretched across the umber sky,
Metaphysics fail to explain
Why the earth feels about to die.

The winds of eternal change
Blow beyond the norm,
Across all the living
Pours a new and strange storm.

Worrying... the subject matter yet well portrayed. I did struggle with the pronunciation in the first stanza third row a bit but thats probably a reflection on my lack of education...other than that i really enjoyed it...tyvm

Vivid, fast-paced, and overwhelmingly strong word choice. The calm before the storm effectively conveyed and the final lines complete the downpour.

Eerie and disturbing - could this be the end of the world. Food for thought - interesting and intriguing work.
