Mountain Atmosphere

The river hurls its mountain
stream-fed passage in a frenzy
of tumbled rock, massive and
gaunt, arrogant with a new torrent
of rainfall bleeding from a darkly
bruised sky to unleash on the
landscape an overwhelming
aquarium atmosphere drenching
the forests, slashing the lakes
twisting and tumbling over
mountain rockslides, thundering
and spuming, catching shards
of light escaping the shielding
sun through the merest of cracks
in the cloud-crowded landscape.
