Rainy soap operas
It starts with the smell
faint tints of gasoline
soggy leaves and damp surfaces
the air moist and wet as the sky prepares its dramatic soap opera.
The opening scene begins
a drop here and there

side character
Unimportant
often forgotten
most times ignored in large groups
provides assistance
side character
never the main character
never given a chance to be the main focus
if at least for an hour

is the equivalent of a curse word.
He warned us not to complain
I did anyway.
It's chaos
no one listens
nothing gets done

Music lives here
Music lives here.
I can feel the rain unleashing behind my eyes
thunderstorms building beneath the keys
lightning strikes with each hit of the timpani.
Music lives here.

Waiting in the Hall of Memories
Every Halloween, one house on your street stays dark; no lights, no candy, no decorations. The neighborhood kids whisper about it, daring each other to knock, but no one ever does.

“Believe Me”
“You’re beautiful.”
“I’m not.”
“I love you.”
“You don’t.”
“You live in the stars.”
“My feet are planted on the earth.”
“But your eyes are reflecting them.”
“They’re not.”
“Believe me.”
