(Rainy) Day on [my] Rooftop:
the pitter patter of
[my] Father’s footsteps
slip through solemn notes
of Earl Sweatshirt
(Raindrops) running on the rooftop
Become a dripping liquid metronome
(rain) pressed up
on the glass.
looking in
offers a different perspective.
(Raindrops) falling from the rooftop
Dripping
Liquid
Metronome
perched here [I] look out to
(rain)clouds that
sing whispering notes of soft bullets.
Wet torrents (of rain) loom
as [my] Father cleans the gutters
(rain)
dripping
(liquid)
Metronome
Seedlings sprout from my cracked tiles
Who
in their senectitude
crepitate under [my] weight
(liquid)
Met
Ro
No
me
Here on [my] rooftop
I embrace the cataclysm to come
Under the umbrage of
(rain)clouds
I find Ataraxia in change
