"Ready"
The cauldron
burns and spews
Violent eruption
No ceasing
No end
The cloud
opens and empties
Heavy fall
Immediate beginning
Sudden end
The rain
cascades and tumbles
Gentle, gentle
It may stop
It may end
Collides with cauldron
Meeting with force
Drama
The rain stops
- never ending
Rising again
Far gentler
than it's gentle, violent beginning
The cauldron empties
Not churning
No violence
Though no peace
Hot but never heavy
The cauldron lets go
The cloud waits for the return
Return to grace
Violence to peace
Never peaceful.
