Since I began this walking project, this is the first time I’ve walked in rain in what is the first for the rainy season. It’s also a moment of dissonance, coming so swiftly after recent heat waves. All due to Typhoon Merbok. Earth is shifting uneasily on its axis. This morning, I woke with the thought, Suddenly, happiness can’t be trusted. I know I’m not the only one on the planet today conversing with the skies.
Raise eyes toward
a sky
pregnant
with rain. Forgive
its gloomy
countenance.
It is difficult
to trust
happiness
but the roses
soon will
drink.
