Lazy Moisture

drastically daring & dripping off the edge of a leaf that has somehow made it to the end of autumn without changing like the strongest individual you’ve ever known in your life--- someone with stage 4 cancer laughing in spite of it all, with faith in absolutely nothing that they are told about possible positive progress--- someone swimming against the current up river & with arms thrashing through the white water whipping whilst watchers wade beside the lacking evidence of pain--- this last final droplet of last night’s rain about to dive out into the plain of oblivion says goodbye to the storm that bore it & hello to the ground way down below that it will soon nurture & help to create anew.
