Weather Alert

A half an hour before sunset today, I felt restless..A slight melancholy had been settling upon me, like a veil made of chiffon and spiderweb. A crack of thunder shattered the stillness and rattled the windows of the house. A monsoon storm was upon us. The lightning flashed and rent the sky and the rain pummeled the earth. "Perfect," I thought, and I grabbed my keys and rode out into the storm. 

I turned up the music and drove.
