little black cloud  
be my friend 
you're everywhere with day 
you drift 
dog to island, elephant
and blackest, have no shape to say
little dark cloud we all have
the truth is more than you can tell 
sometimes 
gone misty
gone by grey 
in big blue 
give thunder 
or still with night 
you're at horizon 
is it that you're listening in?
you're not the smoke 
hung over town 
you were some deity 
once in a while 
anvil lightning missed 
you were the hands of prayer 
now parted 
all this nonsense 
souls afloat 
signs for wonders
spirited 
with all tomorrow knows 
 
So good, Kit.
