Raindrops don’t regret slow passage
down windowpanes inconsolable rain
we spoke of the late Qing dynasty
the early Edo and of curiosity
how explorers do not extend their lives
when junction boxes lie as buried
the early Edo and of curiosity
how explorers do not extend their lives
when junction boxes lie as buried
as Amelia’s silver bracelet in the sand
Li Bai too watches raindrops falling
weaving the odds he survived the boat
weaving the odds he survived the boat
till the storm was over it was dry again
there’s no telling where this tale is ending
another glass is raised the nerve is steady
I wonder how we make things important.
I really like the framework of Saturday afternoon.... yeah, going on to Sunday when things become clearer, or, at least, more stable, and then, it all fades away again, as not so important
