It is Raining Today

by James Zealy

It is raining today
Rain is happening
Every day of late
Even when awakening

It is raining today
A reign of bigotry
A reign of hate
A reign of idolatry

It is raining today
Signs displayed openly
Ignored thinking it is passé
Believing it is not likely

It is raining today
Contrived cruelty
Has become events seen daily
Observed with passive lucidity

It is raining today
White washing history
With authoritarian fairy tales
While anxiety and loss is an allegory

It is raining today
Fact is fiction up is down
Lies are truthful forays
Designed to define an orange crown

It is raining today
Sunlight is eclipsed
By carefully planned displays
Of defined chaos that exists

While it is raining today
While it is raining every day
While we fight to see the sun again
While our anger burns hot strains

Meant to evaporate the mist
Where darkness fades to dusk
The sun shines rays of bliss
And the rain no longer disrupts
