NA PO WRI MO, DAY 11: GREEN FOG

Green Fog

Green fog comes
on little frog feet

It sits on our cars
and in our lungs
until a cleansing rain
washes it away.

  1. My friends and I
    Would like to know
    Just how the rain
    Can cleanse our lungs

    But out of fear
    And politesse
    The question stays
    On tips of tongues

  2. Can rain indeed
    Clean out your lungs?
    The answer comes
    on clumsy feet:

    Unless you drown,
    No, likely not.
    The question is
    Not indiscreet.

  3. Humidity is the secret here
    A cleansing influence- but I fear
    the hacking up of pollen filled phlegm
    would be most impolite here, ma'am.

    So Eli's son you need to work
    a little harder at this craft
    While E.E.Cummings was a dork
    And most still think of him as daft
    You have great chops so why not show'em
    Expectorate a minute poem.
