That's what's so confounding about waves,
every one is different,
every one is the same.
Today, 188 days into a withering drought
waves keep coming regardless of the missing cats and dogs.
Form and foam of a lateral down pour
marching out of the horizon.
Salty, unhelpful to our thirsty earth
but a reminder:
it keeps coming
it keeps coming
regardless of your worry.
