Resonant Frequency

by Aaron Blair

Irony punches through the wall
with a closed fist.

Now that summer is over
and the crops are in,
the rain comes.
The thunder outside my window
vibrates my resonant frequency.
I cross my legs
so I won't shatter like glass.

The grey sky locks the world up tight.

Author's Note: Drought all summer, rain all the time since the harvest.

Here in North Carolina we are still stuck in an extreme drought and I still pray for rain, although everyone's yard looks like the brown of a harvested wheat field. Back to your peom, another masterful stroke you invoke with your own style.
