Tonight ( Rainy Night In New Orleans)A Poem by Jerome F Knox III pseudonym Nefarious J. DorseyFreestyle
Gray boom clouds
hide the moon tonight Lovers running up and Down Bourbon Street Hoping to find cover In a speakeasy Or juke joint Hoping to get Wet for different Reasons Cars whisking by My hotel window As the rumble from The thunder Shakes my room As I look up to The sky and wonder Is God hungry? The lighting lights Up my room As I stare outside The window again Hoping that the Rain will wash away My fears and Mask my tears I glance up and Down the street Looking for the cat That plays the sax For nickels and dimes Tonight it is sad and Silent for both us Because there is no Change to be found Tonight... © 2015 Jerome F Knox III pseudonym Nefarious J.
