Why the Egyptian, Arabic, Abyssinian, Choctaw? Well, what tongue does the wind talk? What nationality is a storm? What country do rains come from? What color is lightning? Where does thunder goe when it dies?
In Ray Bradbury's "Something Wicked This Way Comes," the author poses thought-provoking questions that highlight the universality of nature and the human experience. He contemplates the origins of various elements of the natural world, using poetic imagery to emphasize that phenomena like the wind, storms, and lightning do not belong to any single culture or nationality.
By questioning the identities and origins of these forces, Bradbury suggests that the beauty and power of nature transcend borders and language. This idea resonates with the reader, inviting them to reflect on the interconnectedness of all living beings and the shared experiences that bind humanity together, regardless of cultural differences.
