Kit Kelen #621 - rain


621
rain

and so we coaxed
this cloud to stay

and do the long awaited

patience!
the weather is a long time in us
here we come again

never rote
but like us
falling for

the whole round trip
was spur of the moment

wings gather for a welcoming
and sometimes shelter in the branches

not even this is the end of the journey
but dreams evaporate

it’s the precipice addressed
as if there were each green thing calling

a temperature adjusts to

so many times around this world
it’s another planet
you have to imagine
(there all landscapes are impostors
it’s only acid falls)

amounts to a tune
could be this happens inside as well

whenever it comes
there’s a poem
… how I love dripped onto

these leaves come to us
each a world
bubble of thought
thought ages ago
each of them yet to say
at’s why tank
and tap too

tongue out to taste
the last drop

where rain is falling –
home!

it’s the same with them with us
always a brink of some kind

manna’s this model
pennies have purchase
at’s why tank
and tap too

tongue out to taste
the last drop

where rain is falling –
home!

it’s whatever heaven says
I love to listen with tin
see what a sun says after

I love to hear it fall again
that’s why tank
and tap too

tongue out to taste
the last drop

where rain is falling –
home!

  1. Outside tonight
    in a hypermodern
    Shanghai courtyard
    having a companionable vape
    with myself
    after a good curry
    at the Indian
    a light shower
    under a bamboo stand
    thinking it's all the umbrella a man needs
    when of a sudden
    a huge gust of wind
