The Threat of Overcast
The threat of overcast
gunmetal day
the cold steel
of it
pressedagainst
my head.
There is not
enough
light, color,
or birdsong
to keep the bullet
at bay.

You caught the essence, the pressure, the heaviness of a dark day. I pray you have heard the chorus of many blue birds since.
