When it rains

I use metaphors for this one for the infection of the rain clouds from pollution. I am also playful and serious at the same time. Hope you enjoy.

The rain came down like Darth Vador

chasing Luke Skywalker.

It wanted to take the hands

of the people infecting

its blessed bounty

with too much acid.

This liquid spews vapor

and torments children

to stay in and watch from

the inside.

Their televisions on

watching some pschyedilic

childeren show

like Spongebob,

their minds become

the rains masterful revenge.

I enjoyed the character usage, because it took me back. I remember the rain tormenting my outside time, too. Good job! Thanks for nostalgia!
