what makes all places look alike is rain
tropical or temperate or normally cold
north south east west new world or old
the steady fall of drops makes all plain
dulls sound makes all things dark by main
force of steady falling everything's on hold
we can't express a process to unfold
the world is covered by a steady stain
after sunset things are much the same
the interruption of a car's headlights
could be anywhere the dank odour
is universal all seems weak and tame
humanity is linked by such damp nights
the cryptogram does not need a decoder
Odd ravings, comments, and other wastes of time. Some are in plain prose, yet others are in rhyme.
