a thousand icy stares
a thousand yesterdays
a lovely killing word
hanging on a string
I still remember
how we used to sing

on the streets
and under umbrellas
we weaved the rings
and spread our wings
in shades of off-white

you promised
you would take me
to Colorado Springs
in the fall
and I believed you
rain-stained eyes and all
 Jun 2015 Nevermind
Austin Martin
Innocence, adolescent, coalescence

The rain patters and beats over and over
as wind rushes through the nervous horizon.
Each time the mist touches down, a great electric arc leaps
between them.  The storm
smiles and looks over the land with its vivid blue grey clouds.
It is a beautiful storm that nurtures and enchants all the trees, sidewalks, and homes.
It is a storm that cannot return enough.
Thunder doesn’t roar but giggles.
Wind doesn’t shriek but caresses.
The rain beats faster and faster, eagerly flooding.
