Late Summer

Through the shadows and under the lights I wafted, the air growing heavy and dank.
I said to the monster in the sky, "Eat me up, i DARE you."
He growled at me, his belly was empty.
"I do not have a taste for human girls," he rasped. "but the empty streets will swallow you whole."
I stopped, looked behind, looked in front.
"I do not want her." the streets echoed slowly. "She is too small."
The monster in the sky howled, and beat the trees, and the clouds grew dark with his rage.
"Human girl, are you ready to be eaten up?"
"Yes." I said, and opened my arms to the storm.
