floods and foreclosuresA Poem by jacob erin-cilbertofloods and foreclosures
philosophical
clouds rain demented dreams lightning strikes in
thought patterns erratic storms of
semantics
uninsured, cryptic
lodgings damaged retina of the
mind
the thunderous roar of
his voice just a slight sound of hushed rain
pitter-pattering a roof of denial
he is distance, and i am
here waiting out the deluge
of grief
wishing i could fall
from the clouds over his head, and tap on his window like a stray raindrop.
