The re-birth of clouds and the air after rain.
it started with a glance. just one glance that's all it took.
it grew, flourished
laughed. cha cha cha dancing
the ha ha ha. one step forward, sideways glance now
FOUR STEPS BACK.
The ha ha ha only came from you.
One night just one
night that's all it took for hopes to soar
burning
with the stars. But that only made their fall all…the worse. From
the stars to the earth = that great deal of space.
The ha ha ha turned to hate. i hated you and
was glad.
For that night. That night where time stopped.
Stole time i should be with now.
And so it died. That snarling twisting beast
i stabbed. Beloved loathing replaced its stage. me,
my own audience clapped as it took its last breath in its cage.
It started with a wave. Just one wave that's all it took.
i hated you for that too. Your ha ha ha ringing
from that wave many more flushed over my cheeks

You’d done it. It was born once more. Painful week of labour.
Alive again
Refused to surrender
Could not conquer.
Trapped in this ha ha ha
i want the last laugh. To stand on a scaffold and spit it
Out but do not worry…yours
truly. For if
You have noticed the air-
Clouds compress it
heavy.
It pours. But after the rain the air is fresh.
ALIVE.
New. As it was before. If you’ve noticed that – there’s nothing to
fear
To smell the air after the rain.
