My Perfect Vacation

by c. william lucas - Not entered


oneis very unhappy in the
rotten sunlight of the street.
	(I know there was a puddle there)
onefinds rest in dark clouds;
and thunderous attitudes.
	(small oceans in the street)
onewalks in the silent pavement;
the June rain is desperate weather.
	(gasoline rainbows collect)
oneis reminded, through rain, of shadows
that are cradled in sunlight.
	(my foot makes futile waves)
onehurdles through wind; crazy,
delerious in the water. 
	(this puddle is all that's left of me)
onebreeds disappointment with each
passing cloud - stay above us.
	(below swirls my gasoline puddle)
onessits in moss, still wet,
in ridiculous rain.
	(I am not as permanent as I would like to be)
I am not as permanent as I would like to be.

Reason for writing:
