Cumulonimbus by Cymbre DolphayWhat nameless god has woke thee
from your ageless slumber
and ordained your wrath upon
those who have shown you no wrong
but only the greatest of piety
the winds flee in immortal terror
screaming a futile warning
to those who must endure
your anger and vengeance
and weather this raging storm
what the gods have set in motion
is not easily set aside
the skies shall war upon themselves
and the creatures of earth
shall respect the heavens fury
