Listen! Something that wants to get even with us
in the most terrible way
broods o'er the sea tonight, you can hear it breathing!
I keep hearing things! Listen!
Pitching keeps me sane! I used to say
but no more. Rain...

And with eternal motion the sea doth wake
and a sound like thunder
no, actual thunder -- dear child!
Prepare a chair!
A sound of thunder -- everlastingly!
The cats hate this shit! 
They go nuts!
 
Storms have always followed me... 
like that woman, Julie Christie...
the refugee decades through which you foraged
all those rickety wrecks
or wait was that me... blinded by parlous seas
the old hulk rocking
taking water below decks 
that pine tree wasn't meant to be
growing sideways like that
falling down I mean
the air turning to vapor and steam 

yet to watch the long bright river drawing slowly
outside the Gate like that -- and yet
fearful the plum tree will plunge into your my-my --
rivers are meant to be benevolent aren't they
O silver protectress
lissome Lady of the Silences! 
Now that the weeds are dank, and paths are mire!
