Worried about FLASH floods, we had to turn to our hostess and with much regret leave early. By GOLLY, it was hard to avoid LURID thoughts of disaster and mayhem. It certainly added a sense of urgency, one that I was not known to REVEL in, though occasionally my beloved gets rather ramped up. What an odd feeling when going for a calm demeanor makes one a REBEL. In any event, our efforts somehow sorted themselves out, and together we were able to avoid disaster, REPEL our demons and land quite sweetly in a good place, in emotion and in fact.

SHARP words, like shards
shifting in a kaleidoscope,
every twist a new version
from the colorful bits
tossed with no regard
for the PRICE being paid.

Spent, she rolled away
in the Land ROVER,
destination: escape.
Desire for a darkness
thick enough to REPEL
the slowly seeping regret.
