RADIO ETHER PROGRAM ONE THOUSAND EIGHT HUNDRED AND THIRTY (RAIN ETHER #2)

American Haiku by Jack Kerouac

The taste of rain – Why kneel?

The bottom of my shoes are clean from walking in the rain.

Snap your finger stop the world – rain falls harder.

After the shower among the drenched roses the bird thrashing in the bath.

Early morning gentle rain, two big bumblebees Humming at their work

Birds singing in the dark —Rainy dawn.

The rain has filled the birdbath Again, almost

Useless, useless, the heavy rain Driving into the sea.

The little worm lowers itself from the roof By a self shat thread

Nightfall, boy smashing dandelions with a stick.

frozen in the birdbath A leaf

In my medicine cabinet the winter fly has died of old age

Missing a kick at the icebox door It closed anyway.
