Wet

Coffee creamer rain drops,

wet and thirsty and cursing the turkey

who said too much water was too bad.

 

Bring on the damp leaves

and the damp seats of pants.

Splash on droplets dropping from branch

to sea level.

 

Salvia, spit it up, into your

baby bird's mouth and

drop some on me accidentally.

 

Flood tiny concrete rooms,

irrigate me.

Smother in luke-warm raindrops,

and I scream when stink-bugs press their

wet little pad toes on me.

 

Dampen everything!
