When it rains, you know it's raining.
And when it doesn't you know it will.
Rain is kind of like a metaphor that stands for something else,
When you shouldn't be standing in the rain.

ugly afghan blanket drapery contains a singularity of warmth
across shoulders not so bold as rain
downbeats.

Rain impermeable,
Wet then whet,
Now, more or less impermeable.
