dull repetitive drip of luke-warm rain on the windshield
through silver tinted windows look I at the puddles gathered on a hot sweltering spring night in the south, when the rain falls lazily in its slow, unhurried way.
The soft roar of the miniature waterfall of the storm drain reaches my ear through the miniscule crack of a car window, a muted sound, amplified by the stillness of a sluggish night.
And, sweltering I sit, sweaty in my metal shell, protected and dry from the rain but wet all the same from the natural water wells of my body, as I suffer through the sweltering night overheated and under-appreciated in the warm rain of a forgotten night my only companion the sweet whisper of warm raindrops on glass in the dark stillness of the deep of night watching the drops streak across curved glass like liquid meteorites and the rain strengthens momentarily, in unrest, the din a symphony of beats to straining ears, keeping nature's time with staccato beats and it ends as softly as it began, petering down to nothing but thick clinging mist that hugs the ground like a reunited lover… and is as a thick woolen blanket obscuring all in milky white anonymity…
And the water rushes down the drain.
