Rain

RAIN (a song)

I thought that the rain had stopped

falling. There was a break

in the clouds

and the sunlight looked like

Eden.

I thought that the tears had stopped

falling. That we'd vanquished all the

evil in our hearts.

Everything

that had kept us apart.

There was a saxophone

sleeping

in the night sky. There were

police sirens laughing.

And a woman weeping.

And a car refusing to start.
