it was partly due to a period of rainy
weather and partly due to a sudden longing for
the older one
of those two
gripped by that sudden longing
the houses
were stuffed
no period of rain
could have been read

on the first beautiful day
together and comfortable
done
convinced, happy if he knew
all that i read truly
that i still have to read more
all those wet days he would really be happy
if he knew

the mystery of a blue
voice raised
i feel the same, rational
altogether too blustering
fór you because
i was wearing it
