Come in
out of inclement
weather,
and enjoy
the rainfall
of your own hands--
dripping
their soft
renewal
to things
small,
unseen.
*
Give
your life
again
to the
thunder
whispering
above
your jagged
head.
*
Allow
the rain
to work
all night
if
it
has to.
*
Destiny--
that word again....
(Meanwhile,
the weather
moves
on
tiptoes
down
the other side
of
the
street.)
*
Love
the
feet
the
rain
uses.
*
When
home
is
calling
you,
and
its
voice
is
your
own--
do not
ignore
the
light
sneaking
through
the
curtains.
*
The weather
carries us
through
the river
of forgetting
in perfect
accordance
to our longing
for the real.
