Between the sky and me By Fotoula Reynolds

The wind howls

Aggressive and intense

Hissing with narcissism

A grey mist swallows the sun

Spewing an earthly pleasure

And I wonder where you are

 

Clouds moving in the

Direction we read and write

Confusion hangs in the

Thick-choking air and just

Between the sky and me

I see your grey-area warning
