Rainbow Over The Cage…
Wintry clump of harsh, slate cloud,
Sheer, like a massive ship’s hull,
Edged across a burdened sky:
Lumbered, lank, lethargic, dull…
Wintry slump of fresh, white sleet,
Sheer, like a misty, silk shroud,
Shimmered out of a heavy sky:
Grained, glum, grimy cloud…
Wintry hump of arched, rainbow colour,
Sheer, like a gem through rage,
Protected from an evil sky:
United’s unlit, ubiquitous Cage…

The rainbow, however, seemed to offer some protection…
