PRESCRIPTION MEDICINE

On a hot and uncaring day,
the mind drags itself
as the body operates, at best.
Down comes the rain from
the over-ladened clouds,
relinquishing their burden onto our
shoulders, hair, feet and arms.
Like a moist rag clearing the dust
from the grooves and corners of a neglected room,
infinite waterfalls and rivers form on our bodies;
the currents carrying away the loose dirt
and sweat and cares
while the pounding falls crack
the stressful boulders and smooth
the tense pebbles.
The dust is dispersed and all that remains is
no more or less than
the room you once knew.
