Gray Rain

Panoramic cities at the stroke of noon
Ominous clouds darkening the horizon
No one sure of what to think, as
Many stare to the heavens in fear.

Lightning flashes, thunder rolls
Keeping time at specific intervals
Just as Mother Nature's roar of anger
Intensifies with fat drops of her tears.

However, these tears are hot and thick
Globs of murky gray that burn like acid
Forcing the experts to make their predictions
Else the masses come to their own conclusions.

Down it pours like a painter's rage - no end in sight
Coating everything within its path, and
By doomsday morn, the earth is silent
As aliens descend, making their conquest.
