Listen to poem:

Should Sleep Fall As Rain

Should Sleep Fall as Rain
David J Walker

Should sleep fall as rain
Let it reign until the morn

And fill the night with
Humid breezes

I am sheltered
	I am warm

I am aware of the 
wettened world
	outside

And the nature of 
a thirsty garden of Eden 

Eve came to me last night
In a vision

A dream sequence that
Seemed to make no since 

In the context of
A thunderstorm 

Let her reign in the virgin morn
As I awaken in my fresh
Naked flesh 

Wettened with a new 
realization 

My shelter is as open 
As her arms
