Kim Rodrigues Poet Verse

Notes About The Poem

If anyone in the South says “drought”! For the rain never stops! 

Pitch Dark Rain

expecting my home to dislodge
and rainwater to pillow my window panes
for it rains and rains and rains
insane days upon days

the dark disguise breeds imagination
for it pours pours pours
as the magician’s apprentice
dreams more and more
