thunder on an august night MAG
i watched the storm roll in.
the sweet, cold taste of a banana smoothie.
electricity charging the night sky.
seventeen-year-olds sitting recklessly
on top of the black Jeep we call home.
not knowing how lighting works but
if it strikes us then so be it.
a woman on the shaded sand with her son
a couple in love, groping, kissing, performing.
we say, “gross,” and look away.
i’m being held tight as thunder roars.
man in car shouting, “don’t die tonight!”
man above getting angry.
