Untitled

I went for a walk
Near the capitol
Hoping to get the
Ideas clear on
What I should do
With you, at my house.
The sky was heavy
Clouds ready to spill
Leaded drops, enlightenment
Rain on me
Rain on me
I stuck out my tongue
& the drop never came
But the clouds fell to earth
And lay all around me
Puddles along the curb
Vibrating as I step over them
Running toward the bus
A sprinkle marred my shoe
A reminder of
the no strings attached
roll in the hay
I was heading toward.
And as the sky was brooding
I was its muse,
Feeling darkly,
I too billowed across
Bustling city blocks
Until I hit
25th street &
Made a left toward my house
But remembered I
Would need to be drunk
To do what
Had to be done.
6 pack in hand
I unlocked my door
And began to undress.
