Threatening Weather

I watched a man shoot
His gun at the sky.
It was a black gun.

Nothing fell as far
As I could tell
But then again

Nobody was looking.
Then he turned
His gun on me.

I could see straight
Down the sights
Into his eye.

Did I mention we
Were standing in
Quick sand?

He did not fire
But instead turned
His gun back on the sky.

And again I was just a guy
Watching the sky
Who was in it up to here.
