Soaking Wet Suite, for Human and Any Available Instrument
Wherever you hide from the rain becomes the rain’s instrument
the roof over your head tin or tar the glass and metal casing of cars
and every room in the house has its own sound of soaking wet
Earlier today the instrument was me at first the sound of a dry being
surprised by downpour and seconds later was already the sound
of saturated work clothes and splat of drops on hair as wet
as it could get: I love these sounds but I’ve had enough
Tomorrow I’m going out to listen for the sound of things drying
