The taste
of rain
—Why kneel?
Jack Kerouac
————————————————
You are right
I didn’t know
But now that I do
I am rather pleased
With the style
With the content
With the disobedience
I too tasted the rain
On dark nights
At the bus stop, under the trees
After the long downhill walk
From the cross-country railway station
I also was on a spiritual path
On my way
To see my two beautiful children
As many estranged fathers might

cultivate awareness
& open your heart
