L1GH+N1NG

Standing amidst the charging wind,
I watched lightning fall -
like gods fighting
amidst themselves
to uncover the traitor.

But then I remembered -
"lightning n.
flash of bright light
produced
from cloud by
natural
electricity" - a good
scientific explanation.

Then it stopped,

giving way
to soft rain,
immersing me
from head
(through heart)
to toe
in water -
H₂O: hydrogen x 2 + oxygen.

Then the rain fell
harder, as if science
offended
the sky.

Perhaps
it was just mourning
for God.
