It falls, softly.
I watch the pavement bleed
to grey, one drop
drop
at a time.
Through the cracks they come.
In lines, in mobs, frantic.
Weavers, Jack Jumbers, Bullets by the hundreds.
Escaping
one painful inch
inch
at a time.
The worms come out, too
Sliding up from below.
Snaking their way through the soil,
the sidewalk.
But the rains just too hard.
They start floating away
away
one life at a time.
one life at a time.
