porch
i watch the rain
crystal drops
off the eaves
drops fall
a beaded curtain
silabently hissing
as tho a spirit
from the
softly soughing trees
passes through
*like the chest
of an asthmatic child*
~~~
i will perhaps
paint today
the light is diffused
i guess i'll paint the rain
in blue watercolor
~~~
cars go by on my street
lighting up puddles
it's a bit dark yet
the taillights spark
in the bland pavement
sparkling jewels
on the showcase
of asphalt
*the garden swoons
with moisture*
~~~
my nerves singing
humming high voltage wires
as I sit i feel them
release
ping! ping! ping!
broken
electric guitar strings
~~~
like a devotee
i sink
into
the river
of
baptism
my mind
once smudged
with transgression
against the night
becomes
as snow
as light soaks
my robes
of repentance
~~~
*in deliverance the sky doth weep
i pray The Lord my soul to keep*
