Performance
Rain keeps falling,
like the curtains after each
overperformed act you finish.
I will fill the theatre with my silence,
and refuse to give you a standing ovation.
I’ll let the thunder take care of that.

I love the poem’s tone, its use of theatre and thunder, its concision.
Thank you, Gaby! Your encouraging words have inspired me all month.
