There has yet to be a
pitter patter
Still the air is cool
There has yet to be a
drop of rain
Still the dams must
hold
Still there is a haze but
if you hold your neck up high
this night you are a jeweler and
can count your newfound fortune
when the golden sliver
retreats and glinting silver
creeps across the
expanse of unmade
glass.
