river dancing raindrops
falling on the roof
streaming down the windows,
I'm in my car aloof

protected from the elements
at least from those outside
contemplating rhyming
in a place I hide

from psychic sensitivities,
knowing what is thought,
feeling other's feelings
'though I have been taught

how to let go the turmoil
let go the gloom
let go believing
to orbit like the Moon

around the barycentre
of me, Earth and Moon
which keeps moving undeground
midnight to high noon

while contemplating rhyming
in a place I hide
raindrops river dancing
on my roof outside...
