I
Today, the rain came and it was wondrous
My heart beat loud as the thunder
As I watched through split panes
And I opened the door, slapped by the heat
Sweat pouring, thick as the air.
Steam rose from the hot black top.
More decibels lost and the day goes on
To be glorious.

II
I just needed to be around skin and bones,
And a voice not mine.
