Cloudy with a Little Chance of Lightning

Photograph by Paul Hsu

Adjudicators

clouded judgments come

early bird specials

of the old pecking

order. Where were we

be headed?

Brothers of lightning

are we all sun-blocked?

Sisters of mourning

here now listening

to cloudbursts
with heartbeat

and kindred
memory

by late-night
candlelight.

III
Love language we
be a cloud one
conversation
between members
of one body.
