Analysis of Storm Warning
A hurricane of stimulation,
a tornado of thought
Blowing through the vast unknowing,
our natures to be caught
When doubt sits high on light’s horizon,
storm warnings there portend
Whose cyclones of enlightenment
—with hailstones shape and bend
(Villanova Pennsylvania: April, 2019)
