a bird laughs at the absurdity

a bird laughs at the absurdity
then chats with a flyer-by looking for a snack
looks at the river running briskly to the strait
wasted and muddy from a downpour in the mountains
the plum rains have arrived
but the plums must be in the mountains
sour in the closed night markets
rains turn smog into solid clouds
solid rain, not splattered humidity
mountains enshrouded now blanketed
vision, clear, no cataracts at all
pagoda mausoleum clearly points to heaven
Buddha turtles don't bask in sunless skies
egrets don't fly on training missions
a downpour could happen at any moment
rain gear donned by noisy little scooter drivers
rapidly the Han water runs
wish it would slow down
it is only Monday
