Lemonade Highlighter Pools

We were caught beneath the sheets of storm,

Not ones of cotton.

You whispered how you shouldn't

As you do

Before you do.

A year or two is not so long,

Although the world will likely spin

And move

And fall into an oily ruin.

There's somebody who will always build again.

A cherry cola

In a battered dripping car

Under yellow spills of light

Eternally will set the world to rights.
