RAIN
I am dancing naked in the rain.
There is no better way to dance.
And nowhere else to dance.
But the rain.
I do not dodge the drops.
I do not try as I once did.
There is nothing else to do but dance.
And in the rain.
I did not really dance before,
although I really thought I did.
Before I learned nothing is stronger
than the rain.
And I wore clothes, back then
when I really thought I danced.
Before I learned of the need for nothing
in the rain.
I am dancing naked in the rain
Itβs doing its work, beating me down
Until there is no one remaining.
Just the rain.
