»Living vicariously through desire«

by Neil C. Raynor

the power fluctuates and I pray the lights don't go out
before I find a flashlight
it grows so very cold in here in no time at all
when I'm left alone in the dark,
staring out into the searing streams of rain,
luminescent in the dark sky,
falling in the broken streets.
