Envies the Rain

Envies the Rain
by Alicia Millar

The girl watches
knees pulled to chest,
the rain that falls
the drops are all
so lovely
each one the same
the nature of rain
making their kamakaze plunge
towards the concrete
an army of Magritte
clones one and all, those little men,
and though they fall
to their demise,
the girl is sad to realize
that she envies every one of them.
