smell of brimstone
embered midnight sky
is Provincetown burning?
how many blackened souls
rise thru lightning & thunder
wind & pounding rain?
walls shudder
the roof thrums
but where do rabbits go?
robins? chipmunks? jays?
how sure is their shelter?
so many hours to wait
for weather’s ebb
another blue day’s dawn
