13.
And outside at midnight thunder
gorgeous rolling distant thunder
follows the hard rain threatening
certain weak spots in ceiling crack
water drip.
The musty smell of rain water
after being filtered through
the crips and million-fold
crannies of an old house
has a musk to it indicative
of actions long since past,
smells like experience,
hard haunted come-again
experience,
and a passing minor storm at
that,
silence following the front
as opposed to sirens and general
natural disaster chaos noises.
