Listen to poem:
Civil Rain
Civil Rain
David J Walker
I could see it from a distance
The stroke of midnight looming
When this OD Green façade would
Dissolve in a civilian rain
How ya-gonna-act
Who will you be
What will you take home
Besides pain
I am my own blurry memory as
The chemical color
representations
Fade within the frames
Drinking up
The familiar cup
Of civil rain
And a prayer for each passing day
