Wading through chattery voices,
vertigo takes hold
as I struggle to escape them.
Only the clock brings this kindness
as the headset comes off
and the computer goes to sleep
and I wearily make my way
into the light rain of early evening.
Though brief,
the moment is sacred.
As the sun hides behind gray clouds,
the world takes on the cooling sheen
of muted silver
and all that is pressing down dissipates.
Guided by music from the car stereo,
I drive through this dream,
this blessed journey between
golden, glowing raindrops
to the arch of color that signifies
the end of the rain
and the closing of this day.
