Glimpses of dark clouds
— a dreary, humble day
the gentle patter
pat, pat, pat
of a billion raindrops
falling from the sky
to wash, to cleanse and
give life to a dried up world.
Bird's song amiss today.
This morning I imagine
the worms have surfaced
enjoying a slime bath
free of predation,
while babies cry for food
and peck nakedly up
towards the sky.
Dark clouds in Greece today
— a dreary, humble day
the incessant countdown
tick, tick, tick
of a billion Euros owed
to bankers, banks,
and their shareholders too
— lenders, also, need to live!
Something amiss today.
This morning I imagine
the worms have surfaced
to enjoy a slime bath!
make your own laws lenders
while babies cry for food
and look nakedly up
towards the sky.
