Rain

rain drinks my sight and makes my face the sea, i
am falling apart like a wet newspaper, this is not
friendly water landing in a tin bucket on an autumn
evening when the hills gather round and the lights
outside flow too, this is beyond cleaning and baptism
this might be the end of the world, and so it should be.
