when thunder comes

through whispered winds


and tortured thunder


and screaming streams


of  love and hunger


of clawing crows


and roaring rain


the lonely heart


still feels pain


and when that wind


comes 'round the bend


and shadowed souls


from tiny holes


and echos swell


in hallows hell


the shallow sick


with wounds to lick


and when the lonely


black crow cries


and when the lonely


black crow cries


through whispered winds


and tortured thunder


and screaming streams


of  love and hunger


of clawing crows


and roaring rain


the lonely heart


still feels pain
