the rain falls in heavy sheets
and on the pavement beats and beats,
and soaks into my hair and clothes
until, weighed-down, I wander home,
where waiting for me is no fire
but only the incessant desire
to fly like rain out of the clouds
and floating down, cover like a shroud
the city streets where raindrops run
until brought up by the midday sun.
