Thunder cut through
The silent 3.33am
Rain fell breaking the dry
Into the tissue papered water
Ghosts settle between us
Wearing masks
And red dresses
Wearing red lips
Men who are women
Who long to be men
No familiar faces
Except yours
Stillness between us
Courthouse champagne
And a forgetful woman
Shadows caught between us
You don’t cast darkness
But images are wept
As rain brings the dawn
And broken umbrellas
Hang in the cupboard
