The rain in endless
Sheets pours down, flooding courtyards
Dampening brown leaves
It came last night, sudden
Downpour in the gutter out-
Side of my window
Never stopping, the
Rain fell though the night, taking
Dust and smog from air
Parts of dining hall
Closed off, filled with water now
Drains clogged with dead leaves
Heat is gone, now cold
Seeps in to buildings with single
Pane glass in windows
From above, the ground
Sprouts brightly colored mushrooms,
Umbrellas with feet.
