Anna Yang RainFlecks on the pavement,
Patterns—
Never could be regular
Even if they tried their hardest.
Their icy tears form on branches like
Glass beads on a necklace,
Blurring hard edges and
Sharp lines.
White noise
Swallows all surroundings,
Just a steady drumming as each
Drop touches down.
I close my eyes and feel
Nothing.
As it all
Falls
Away.
