Rainy Day 

Is anyone watching

from the towers

I wonder.

I can’t see.

I can’t tell

if I’m being watched.

The drizzly, misty rain

is shrouding me

in a fog of fear.


I can’t breathe.


Can’t take the deep breaths

I need

to forestall the rising

panic.


It’s such a pretty scene.

I try to focus on it.

Try to see the calming colours.

But the towers loom ominous.

They worry me

so much


I can’t breathe.
