How It Starts
this is how it starts
rhapsodic –
rain pouring
on the roof
like no
tomorrow
like yesterday’s thunder
old news.
this is how
it starts
paned &
painless
windows open
spineless clouds
breaking through.
what propels us
compels only quiet –
a city in search of itself
a rider that is only
half horse.
this is how
without purpose
the rain urges
razor sharp
downward
a quick spiral up
towards the light.
