The clouds descended

like a cascade of grey hair

on my slump body

and registered your presence,


The breeze melted

like a dream

inside me

and inscribed your presence,


The blaze nudged

like a chord

into my ears

and flicked your presence,


The rain poured

like an eiderdown

onto my tattooed shoulders

and penetrated your presence,


The moonlight perched

like a cockatiel

reached my heart

and lodged your presence,


Now you and your ubiquitous absence

idolized 

everywhere yet nowhere!!!
