《Girl in the Rain》
In the corner of the world
love washes over
your indigo mountains & seascape
echoing your heart’s beating
your laughter darting
water’s surface
I remember
your playfulness
when we parked to watch
you used to put your sockless feet
on the wheel when rain
falling --- soft pearls
splattering the thin roof
of the small Fiat
Jazz & kisses
Time stopped
and we no longer knew
where we were
or even this borrowed
l-a-n-g-u-a-g-e
flowing out of our mouths
and through car window
disappearing & mixing
w/the timeless rain-song
What is it that makes
the word-birds fly
so beautifully strange
as if love breaks the box
and fills all that rain-colored
space beyond
our sky?
How much happiness
do we know?
How much rain
can the soul contain?
For a moment
I forget about myself
& catch each note
of your music
every electron
of your presence
as it rains upon
my unshaved day
Singing
w/you, in/you
Drinking it
all in
...
