rain down on me
let it pour
let my skin repel
every icy drop
of water that fell
Let it
blow gusts of wind
let it knock down branches
let my curly hair do dances
in the storm
Let it
burn me, the sun
till I’ve blisters
let them fill
and with my fists, sirs
I’ll pop everyone
as if it bubblegum
Let it
snow, a blooming blizzard
slapping my face
hard as a lizard
billowing gusts of powdery dust
let it climb past my door
I’ll bore a tunnel through it
crawling out the other side
where the ocean meets the sky

rain down on me
let it pour
let my skin repel
every icy drop
of water that fell
Let it
blow gusts of wind
let it knock down branches
let my curly hair do dances
in the storm
Let it
burn me, the sun
till I’ve blisters
let them fill
and with my fists, sirs
I’ll pop everyone
as if it bubblegum
Let it
snow, a blooming blizzard
slapping my face
hard as a lizard
billowing gusts of powdery dust
let it climb past my door
I’ll bore a tunnel through it
crawling out the other side
where the ocean meets the sky
