Monsoon Dawns
June-July 2025
After the monsoons
the fields flaunt excess,
real green, razor-sharp aloe,
wildflower motely
without a trace
of sweaty desert smog
impressing the Organs
with clouds of hefty
faux summer snow,
and for once dawn
no longer weathering
insufferable heat until,
inevitably, Busy old fool,
unruly sun, through noontide,
midday, twilight, dusk and dark,
tight-knit, shut-up night, ——
tomorrow, tomorrow, tomorrow.
