the rain has come from the land of rain filling the air with sheets of torrent and the scent of tomorrows immaculate breeze. blackbirds crowd the canopies and caw fables - in the deluge. clouds boil overhead; diffuse and gun-barrel grey. the hum of loose change and lightning hangs from the roof of a squall. and all the stars are marching in the dark. like fruit loops in a Kline Bottle painted black.
