RAIN.By Phillip RevieI see cabs moving through my citySwathed in orange light,Moving to the tri-color beat of theBionic conductors.I see love hidden under umbrellas,Shielded by trench-coats and5-dollar ponchos.I see runners on the reservoir,Sweat blended with water on their brows,Cleansed, but only from the outside.I see dark shapes on park benches,Hidden under Moishe’s cardboard andPlastic tarps.I see my cityCleansed by rain on the surfaceAnd yet still filthy.Nothing completely clean.<strong>Curry</strong> Arts Journal 2010 9
