Weather Report

weather report

sun is lost again
air is drab,  too close,
perfect affectation to 
play across the landscape
of my muffled mind.

many days have begun 
and/or ended this way.
neighbours send up fire 
crackers to placate god 
break up the celestial portents.

explosion, fire, reveals
the bland face of cloud which
blocks our  visions. neither wizard 
nor rain maker needed. we 
end with a calamitous whimper.
