it reaches me first

by a fast flow flurry

travels in rolling rapids and

unevenly unravels a static blue,

birds scatter into lofts not to leave

eaves tonight

cloud mountain skies

hold back dams of nervous water

pendulous in high pregnant hammocks,

blue air lies in electric wait

to move everywhere at once

light blue billows much too tame,

leopard crawl walk jog run sprint

it is here

and suddenly it cascades freely trees and cars and sky and clouds rain down for miles from high up with bang and loud and howl juiced heads tread no turning back up fierce attack bold water blitz

we cower

we smell it

and then we laugh
