Senses stumble upon awareness of a
looming nearby, although invisible
perceptions rise intensely: suddenly
we realize winds . . . crashes against siding
Revealed by a door watchfully ajar
our shock: distinct drops obscure objects
flying past . . . pushing across unseen prairie
full dark of night save porch illumination
Rain and heavy debris carried on concealed
horizontal pathways streaming quickly
each helpless to escape or abate, to
avoid penetration under pressure
Puncturing, transferring materials
matter, substance to new coordinates.
