RAINY EVENING BLUES

dave gitomer

curtains of rain, dancing drizzle
marrying martyred doom into eloquent
puddles, who answered rhetorically
with frenzied circular eddies, in
breathless moments, exhaling demise
on the puddle's edge, exhaustion.
curtains of rain, moisturized sheets
filling earthbound puddle's need and
desire, pounding drumbeats of dying
droplets, filling the midnight air with
ancient rhythms of primeval apocalypse.
satiating earth's voracious thirst.
curtains of rain, relentless assault
wringing out tears of the heavens,
cleansing parched parochial soil, tree.
wavering with winds, striking aged
discordant harmonies, in syncopation
with the gust's howl, voices of the
archetype, modern man never escapes.
curtains of rain, vividly dominant
then pass, after quenching the moment's
flame, till next deluge resonates.
