raining today

silver drops falling outta a grey sky

swim in the rain

sauna in the rain

walk in the rain

do yoga in the sunroom watching the rain

the street all wet n deserted

the street slippery and flooding

bedraggled birds

wish i was asleep

sleeping while the rain falls down

dreaming of water maybe i dunno

dreaming of sheets of water

clouds low n heavy

clear water streaming in gutters

dreaming of rainy seasons

dreaming of transparence

dreaming of  river

river of dreaming

slip from this world

slip thru its net

slip thru the sluice

so easy now to slip

away away away

why was i so frightened to slip away

when its so easy

so goddamn easy
