why must rain pour
or symbolize
a flood
–
when mass
of saturation
cools…
–
the heartache
through soaked
skin.

My Promise (Nothing Will Come of the Rain)
Speak to Me
lie, please speak to me,
nature will absolve us hell,
flowers and the truth.

Arbitrary Spring
Blood warm April rain
Suspends my consciousness
Through formless ripples
Of an arbitrary Spring.

Wash Out
Rainless Epitaphs
Nine to Five
we have moments
of invincibility
eclipsed by reason
and I have flirted
with disaster like
a miracle reversed
midstream
collecting rain
from nine-to-five
like scraps of
courage less than
storms or satisfaction.

Micropoetry for Autumn
some people fall
in love, that’s all
just love and
nothing like
the rain.
