Any port
any port in a storm
hunker down in ambivalent territory
stay there long enough
maybe they warm up to you
better yet they loot you good
lay eggs in your hair
make your skin crawl with sores
leave you unrecognizable
you have turned accomplice
in your own ruin
came dangerously close
to your end
lightning flashed across the sky
in that split second illumination
escape was seen
out at sea, tidal waves persist
snapping majestic ships like twigs
here I come mother nature
do with me what you will
your worst is kinder still
theres no malice in the wind
