I've never minded getting wet
never put much effort
into avoiding falling drops,
I carried an umbrella as a teen
more for affectation
rather than applicable tool,
I prefer the touch of sky and earth
prefer the tangible effect of weather
prefer to participate in the vitality of storm,
there are downsides of course
damp and cold are seldom pleasant
and often are the harbingers of sick
not to mention the potential stink
of saturated clothes,
even so, a cost I'm happy to pay
to feel cleansing water on my face
may it wash my past away.
