The viscous impact
Every year the same story repeats itself.
A flying visit of the rain,
A guest, that won’t stay longer than anyone’s gain.
This makes people dread the summer,
All it does is bring destruction in its wake.
The drought causes nothing but misery.
A trickle of water is all that is left of the river,
Animal corpses become a common sight.
Some people lose their lives,
Others migrate before it is too late.
Resources depleting,
It makes humans behave like Neanderthals.
Superstitions prevail!
A child is sacrificed every time, in the name of god.
It is a myth that rain god will be pleased with the sacrifice.
Disappointment is in abundance,
When there is no rain again,
Every year it’s the same.

It's an effort to describe drought conditions.
