Begin with the rain


Begin with the rain
as it begins with the rain
and ends with the rain

The path is hidden.
The well is hidden.

The road to and away
is hidden.

The rain slants down.
Obliterating
where there would have been windows.
The weeds grow
where the last words fell
where fire after fire
eventually went out.

The world, though whispering,
is
(almost),
again,

new.
