I thought I knew this town
'til the hurricane winds blew.
Decrepit, torn down homes
once tall,
founded on what seemed
solid,
now with skewed rooflines.
Had more faith in you.
Pain follows Weakness, Lies,
like a loyal dog
assured he is forever fed.
Amidst the rocky rubble
his paws scuff up the debris
and the puzzle is deconstructed
enough to be read:
Adversity's Sun
exposes the true hues
of a rainbow
in a seemingly spotless
sky...
