CLOUDS
Dark clouds hanging in the air
What winds blew them
I wonder are they good
Hovering thunder and lightening
Persistently pouring down
Causing deluges and mayhem
Our poor hovels flood
Our food baskets wasted
Our field rut
Dark clouds hanging over head
Signaling rain
Perhaps we can dear hope
Fear overtaking this scope
We sit in our huts
Listening to the wild winds blow
Outside waiting to be exposed
Dripping showers we do not need
For many rains
They hover and stay looming
These clouds of calamity
Refuse to budge
Their advent heralded doom
The appearance of a cat in a hen house
Disrupting the usual peace
Taken this for granted we cry
No problem!with conviction
Suffering in silence
We accepted our fate
Our lot a not very happy one
We have heard of these winds
As they visited other lands
The horrors and sorrows
It left behind numbed the mind
Now that it has come visiting us
We of force most live
Through the hard times
Never giving up hope
That these winds of calamity
Would move on
Leaving us at peace again
That we can the rebuild our lives

A dark mighty cloud rose,
Over the distant sky layers,
Covering the Sun at day,
And the moon at night.
Dark skies, not mercy rains,
Rains of blood, fear and terror;
War against human decency,
Rolling millions of human heads.
In the East, started the blood rains,
And it crept to the Western,
Central, Northern and Southern,
And now circulated everywhere.
Extremists of all folks,
The religious, the pagans;
And the selfish world leaders,
All for greed and supremacy.
The IL prepares the final blast,
To shatter empty-headed Pharaohs,
Ever created wraths of e*** omen,
At once, human indecency will be over.

Bro Kaniibaa,
I long since shared your frustration which let to my writing of the above poem, almost three years ago. Clouds are supposed to mean hope for refreshing rains, but not as in your poem. It is the opposite.
Regards,
Dalton

To be honest with you, i was equally frustrated, just like you.
I think this world of ours deserve better than what is under sight of killer *****s (excuse my french) everywhere.
Thanks for your poem though.
