	the rain always seems to come at the opportune moment to start again.
	after so many “one of these days,” came and went,
	the feeling of looking at your ground drenched in downpour
	omnipotent gaze through the screen door.
	a dejected pile of your recent pasts, last middle-of-street collapse
	rushing over the mound in the middle of the concrete
	washed down opposing gutters on the edge of the street.
	making their way to drains at the bottom of the hill
	emptying everything but you and yourself.
