How to Murder Rain
There’s no surprise
attack—it has a bird’s-eye
view. It will be all fight—dodge
and parry, dodge, and parry.
Rain is multitudinous and fast, unafraid
to fall. It can shift
the ground out from under you,
raise a breathless wave above
your head, pin your shoulders
down, crawl inside your body. Wait
for it to spend itself—drive it into
ground, use its body to raise
an army of grasses, glinting
their wet swords to sky.
