Clouds - br I watched as they ruptured, br ash black and pallid I saw mountainous clouds br split and spew rain br for two hours. br Everywhere water, plants and rainwater, br a riot of green on the earth. br My lover's gone off br to some foreign country, br sopping wet at our doorway br I watch the clouds rupture. br Mira says, nothing can harm him. br This passion has yet br to be slaked.
