Drenched again




The rain comes in waves
rolling over me before
I can move
like a cavalry charge
stampeding on me
before I can believe
it is happening,
Me, unable to get out
of the way
until I’m already soaked
a drenched man
feeling every drop
of the felonious assault
dripping down my face
and lips
as I take the long
walk home
alone
