can i request some poems about rain?

wintryblight Answer:

hi anon, of course! rain is among my top 5 favourite things. here are some rain-soaked poems & i hope you enjoy reading!

e. e. cummings, “somewhere i have never traveled,gladly beyond” | nobody,not even the rain,has such small hands

Ocean Vuong, “Immigration Haibun” | How sweet. That rain. How something that lives only to fall can be nothing but sweet.

Andrea Gibson, “I Sing the Body Electric, Especially When My Power’s Out” | You are so full of rain / There is so much that is growing

Conchitina Cruz, “Alunsina Takes a Walk in the Rain” | Today, the news tells me you are scheduled to be lonely.

Elizabeth Bishop, “Sestina” | She thinks that her equinoctial tears / and the rain that beats on the roof of the house / were both foretold by the almanac

Tatsuji Miyoshi, “Great Aso” | Rain is falling. Rain is falling. / In hushed silence rain is falling.

Octavio Paz, “As One Listens to the Rain” | listen to me as one listens to the rain, / without listening, hear what I say / with eyes open inward, asleep

Hayan Charara, “Ode to an Abandoned House” | May you live forever, / may you bury me.

[Text ID: “im sorry, ill clean up the mess. you tell your mother im sorry you spent all that time carbonating me inside yourself just for me to end up the way i am.”]

I would like it if one of the takeaways of this turns out to be “maybe having a high council of decrepit priest-kings who serve for life, cannot be impeached or reelected, and can grant or take away rights to an entire nation at their whim is bad, actually.”

oh you’re neurodivergent? what non-human being did you pretend to be / believe yourself to be in order to cope with the disconnect you felt from your peers during your early childhood?
