March Rain
It's raining in Kansas. "The farmers
need it" is the most polite way to
complain. The fields will all turn green soon.
Green turns gold.
Food will grow.
Rain brings life.
It's raining in Tehran. Black skies. Fire.
Oil tanks burning. Can't breathe. Air stings eyes.
Stay indoors. There is oil in the rain.
Day turns night.
What will grow?
Who will live?
