Another Rainy Night I Suffer

Another Rainy Night I Suffer

A Poem by Leslie Philibert
"

a lot of rain here...

"
Sunk in the sodden wetlands
we wade through pools of glass
wet smoke and begging loam,

a sudden rain,warm as a child`s palm
as young fish we tumble in running brooks,
seas in our eyes, the flood

pulls us darkly under the moon
the rain a s**t at every corner;
dark as the night is water.

The kind of piece that tends to short-circuit the mind and speak directly to the soul.
Outstanding work, Leslie!

wow, " as young fish we tumble in running brooks"
and

"the rain a s**t on every corner"

wicked lines...such dreariness captured with such clarity and brilliant phrasing.

Wonderful gem.
I do not know the art of cutting a gem.
So,left the uncut dazzling diamond in my heart.:)

So true, but never so well described.. strong phrases, distinct feelings, '.. .. pulls us darkly under the moon ~ the rain a s**t at every corner; ~ dark as the night is water.'

Talk about feeling everything! Excellent way to open up our senses. Very strong piece.
I was floating, Philibert wanted me to drown. I did and I loved it. Happy I got to read this piece.

'the rain a s**t at every corner' killer line....
