Midsummer Shower

Midsummer Shower



Don't need this plush and bed-buggy couch anymore
It was nice, like
Three hundred bucks
On the curb now

Now it's raining

Now I'm still standing still in the yard
In my jersey gym shorts, is all
Being soaked - sopping - staring
At the quietest and calmest revelation ever

Yeah, move now
To a new place
With nothing
Allow it to wash clean away

Parasitic
Thinking and
Folks and
Ways in which to spend your money

Time

And do not worry, Boy
That the deep thunder is just as judgmental
As your next-door Baptist
Neighbor

You know

Better

That you

Are

Okay.
