rain on Earth Day

There is nothing more inspirational than rain. I am convinced that magical beads of inspiration fall inside the droplets and every time they hit my head, I get a supposedly brilliant idea. And since I walked to class in the rain this morning at 7:45 am, I will attempt to capture the brilliance. No promises.


College pen chewing. Equally disturbed apathy
motivation stripped bare barely catching
her breath
coffee, stained teeth, burying ebony childlike innocence.
The irony of a deep criticism in Children's classic novels
as adults, insults
an everlasting never changing or growing Peter, Alice, Lucy, Tom.
a child lives forever.
college: ends.
