at the tail-end of
a weeklong
storm is summer
brewing –
the city sweats

all day, the rain falls

all day, the rain falls
in brooklyn like a fugue,
repeating the same
theme on its way
down – ledge, leaf,
rung, stoop,
ledge, leaf, rung,
stoop, ledge,
leaf, rung, stoop –
rubato-
ing and
accelerando-ing
together
with the ease of
a seasoned symphony

it takes more muscles

it takes more muscles
to make a rainy morning
than it does to make

it sunny – scientists are
coveting each other’s raincoats

on rainy mornings,

on rainy mornings,
we collect puddles, folding in
each corner with care

so that only the chosen
reflections spill when retrieved

the rain recites

the rain recites
tenderness in
hidden places –
one, two,
with you

dashing through the rain,

dashing through the rain,
heart captured between a wet
hand on my waist and

avenue a, under our
red umbrella, two as one

all day rain, summer

all day rain, summer
azaleas lie in wait, for
spring’s flowers to fall
