Rain by, Matthew What is the rain? Can the sky feel pain? Does it have eyes, From which to cry? Can it see us die? If so, does it sigh? Does it have ears, From which to hear? Can it speak? Of the havoc we reek? With fire we seal our fate With poisoned air we suffocate. We will die, and it's our fault. The process we can no longer halt. With pollution we cut Earth's vein, And it gushes out the rain. I know it's not too good.I was concidering rewritting it, but I don't fell like working on this poem anymore. |

The poet decides whether to revise or not to revise, and that you did Good job! If this is reality, I want out. |

Can it speak of the havoc we reek... You try to undermine your own work here, and yet Arthur Rimbaud, or even his worshipper Paul Verlaine would idolize you for this line. They both are poignant marks in poetic history, so way to go! I was impressed at the simplistic way of your conveying a point, but not without a few poetic geniuses... Well done.
