Right around midnight the rain dropped,
The water painted the pavement with street lights and fluorescent hotel signs.

Thick air rose from the summer heat ground,
Slowing down the this way and that way late night left overs of the sun soaked day.  Dashing from bars and gas stations or slipping down the boulevard protected by polka dot umbrellas.

White light counts in the righteous  thunder as it bellows over expensive apartment buildings
1..2..3..4.. CRASH

The aroma of a wet city breaks my concentration, all I can do is breathe and watch and wonder.
Every drop of rain makes an impression and I appreciate them all.  

Natures impromptu multi media arts extravaganza,
Free admittance as long as you don't mind getting wet

Half hearted
At least it keeps a beat
I miss your mannerisms and streetwise feet

Thankful to be thankful at least we have a lead
Pointing north or nowhere it's our choice to perceive

Walk on sand turning to rock
Rock to land a grass to frolick in

Thankful for the chance to have this dance I'd let you go if you promise to come back

Don't define yourself with your own mind let the season persuade you to keep god on your side

Sit with me in this undulating sea of concret and center of the continent tides

Roll with me in the green grass of waves that splash us by
never get us wet Say thanks to the Sidewalks and their separation from the street

Help she cried but the sound never left her head
Shed grown Tired of living with the sleep walking dead
Her heart was in a different place than her body and her body didnt feel connected to her heard
Minutes counted in hours passing
Like a time elapsed flower blooming
The bottles went up the bottles went down
She couldn't stop the spin of the world so she laid on the ground
Woke in the morning with a burning and a cry but by the time she opened her mouth to say anything all that would come out was a sigh
Maybe tomorrow or the month after that her heart would be warm again instead of the solid sound of a heart rate gone flat
