thunderstorm


and so it began to rain
the children shouted with excitement
and i was resting on the most comfortable sofa
listening to the music
that teardrops like to make

every raindrop
is a shed tear
so much sadness can bring
plenty of stimulation
if the children are happy
then it's all worthwhile

the suffering of adults
feeds the happiness of infants
the trials of consenting adults
are the nutrition of the future
the fear & confusion of adults
is the bridge to an illusion
