No no, not some metaphor of the current political situation (although that'd be pretty accurate);
we have an actual thunder storm heading our way, and the sounds and feeling of impending
doom is just overwhelmingly beautiful.
Just saw one of the most amazing sun sets; but I was
stuck in traffic, and had left my camera at home. It’s the sunsets right before
an impending thunder storm when clouds are at their best. All that was left for
me was a lousy picture from the balcony, blocked by crummy buildings, one of
which survived an attempt to be blown up last June.
The storm isn’t here yet; it’s hanging somewhere above the
Mediterranean Sea, just off the coast of Egypt, and it isn’t very windy, so
it’s not making much progress, but the fat raindrops have started falling. Amazing
how you can track
thunderstorms these days. For all those people that planned an outdoor
wedding in Beirut tonight; so sorry, I’m afraid your table arrangements just
got ruined, and the flowers are probably floating in the pool by now.
This was a rather impromptu post.
