RAIN BEATS DOWN
It was nocturnal the year it started.
She woke up early, standing still.
Watch the garden, the mist is ragged.
You shift your gaze, you look to see.
Dressing quickly, tongue touching cheek.
She’s walking fast, up the path.
A huge bright spider walks cross her feet.
Eyes open wide, the rain has started.
(repeat from top)
The rain is pelting, pouring, flushing, stinging.
Sky opens wider, you wash your hands.
Your thoughts are frozen, you think you see her.
In a shiny flashing, you know her name.
Heels clicking, clicking, she’s gaining speed.
But the rain stays with you, and her hair is dry.
Your chin juts forward, your heels sink downward.
You glance behind you, the garden’s drowning.
