The Poetry is Precipitation
The path of an introspective poet on a dark, rainy December morning.
Productivity is how you run from yourself
Creativity is how you become yourself
Brianna Wiest
Salt Water
Here we are at the end of the year, and it’s interesting that as much as I’ve written about walking in the rain in the past, I didn’t have that many opportunities this year, but here we are.
That quote of Brianna’s I used resonated because I felt like pure creativity while immersed in the rain. I felt like myself.
I begin my walk and hear the sweet sounds
Of the ambient rain
And the cars crash
Into puddles that formed on the road
I chose an audiobook
It really chose me
Something that chooses
Me when I’m one
With the weather
Symbiotic
My imagination
And her cool
Gentle tears
Vibrate together
Brianna’s words
