Rain hurls wetness
Public places watered;
Soaking exposure

~~~~~~~~~


Dark passing clouds
Loiter and linger;
Tears from heaven

~~~~~~~~~


Rainy debris
Dry leaves soaked;
Earthy tea brew

~~~~~~~~~


Takeaway meal
Local gourmet touch;
Sensorial pleasures

~~~~~~~~~


Two crows sit
Rain drenched;
Tree branch...

Coming is going
Going is being

Dying is living

Style is smiling
Smiling is crying
Crying is styling

Now moves deep spice,
Stillness primes ease;
Silence frees vice,
Feel carefree peace.


Feel how you feel,
Face paradox;
Out-of-the-box,
De-tox now heals.


In stillness sit,
Watch noise protest;

My spirit gently into that good night?

A hollow feel here,
Vain is not a crime
For this empty fear.


You change the story
In perplexing...

some smokes
dark sky, warm air
not enough never enough
dont want her to smell me
sneaking is part of the high

Time wings by
Flips lost page 
Heed odd sigh
At this stage


Purge old box
Tales now dim
Hoax de-tox
Feels calm slim


Angst blames jest
Purge sad strains
Blot wise fest
Hurt brines pain

desolate Negev desert seems...
