in its passive glory reaching beyond the clouds,

Tiny droplets released from plants
Gently touch things of all sorts

and soften the heart of we the cursed dead,
finally returning to the ground.

leaving life dry and dreadful
Predator circling at heights
Prey stretches out
Without fear or facile.

fever rampant erosion

Empty glances,
mirrored hollow drums

Bleeding, starving,
