STORM IN THE DISTANCE by Ray Whitaker

STORM IN THE DISTANCE


She walks intently forward

unafraid of grey’s lack of definition

fearing, respecting only the flickering red

not minding the temporary, wavering oranges

disregarding the black...

knowing there is still something green somewhere.


Even tho something is burning

out there

perhaps in a county far away

where strife makes humanity cry.


White snow refreshes everything.
