Rainbirds

And so we start another day together
You and I and a million miles between us
I train my moods to bloom like flowers unfolding
Instead of fluttering around
And slowly drowning in the
Steel rain, it’s taking over

The sky is open and the drones are pouring out
The day inhales in a contagious yawn
And there you smile as though the sun
Were bouncing in the
Steel rain, it’s taking over

Here in our little world, the tiny world spins for me
All’s well in the titled world, but there’s something
Falling down in the
Steel rain, it’s taking over
