*Collared Lizard*
Dry October
The
Weather
Man
Chants
His
Old
Refrain,
Saying
Maybe,
Perhaps,
It
Might
Rain,
But
Every
Day
It
Stays
Far
Away
Or
Spills
Over
Texas,
Just
To
Vex
Us.
Some
Time
The
Aquifer
Will
Brim
With
Tears
From
Desert
Souls
Who
Waited
Years
To
Fill
Their
Cup,
While
Sun
And
Sand
Drank
All
The
Water
Up.
