Rainlessness
Drought is talented
chooses some streets, cedes others
The sky committee dithers over details
which house gets a proper rainbow
which zone deems dew
a deluge
Count each fleck of moisture
drop huddled to drop seated beside velvet drop

“…which zone seems dew/a deluge…”
Love it.
I worried over that line more than you know.
