a burning rain
What it is.
Sitting here in the sprinkling rain with the sun shining hot “What It Is” by Mark Knopfler, which features the lyrics “People curse the government / And shovel hot food down / ...Everybody’s looking for / somebody’s arms to fall into” inserted itself into this.
a burning rain 2026.06.10 out here on the plains water falls from blue skies people looking to fall into each others arms at least for a little while gray clouds moving up from the south woodpecker hopping on the cedar fence looking for bugs to fill its mouth scudders rushing past yet there is no wind here on the ground a burning rain never lasts passion and rain evaporate quickly but i can't complain love is fleeting at least it isn't sleeting and my deck has good seating to feel the world go by and hear thunder roll in the distance to see another sunset while the rain begins pelting the roof i should go in
What It Is - Mark Knopfler
