Passionless rain
Gray as the streets
And unpaved fields
Where willows sleep
Falls steadily
No thunder roars
For the encore
That might move the world
From its drowsy
Disinterested disposition
The atmosphere merely breathes
Its trisyllabic masterpiece:
Submission.

My head feels far too heavy
To be supported by sinew
Tenuous as that which constitutes
Sagging neck and spine
And I long to sleep
The idyllic sleep of grasses
Motionless in that mist
That saps both body and mind.
It's been one of those rainy, gloomy days that inspires little but the desire for sleep:P

This is so beautiful and clear! I absolutely love these lines:

No thunder roars
For the encore
That might move the world
From its drowsy
Disinterested disposition
The atmosphere merely breathes
Its trisyllabic masterpiece:
Submission.


It's so true. Without thunder or lightning, the rain can seem a little dreary sometimes (especially if it goes on for an extended period of time)
