Inclemencies
I watched you stride purposefully
From your car this morning
With your umbrella
Preparing yourself for the return
To your car
In a downpour
Later this evening
And I thought
You and I are both subject to inclemencies
The various pissing vagaries
And inconsistent contingencies
But tonight I expect
Mine will endure sometime
Beyond the weather
(another slice of life from the commuter parking lot)
