[創作] Down the mount

[yuuyh (甘蔗工)]

down the mount i go
in the rain the rain the rain

only the cap is with me
down the path of wandering dogs,
and the passengers underneath the pavillion

waiting. Then I rush in the rain,
seeking for a shelter,
like the stick-bug hurrying beside me,
big steps, awkward gaits.

To a stop I halt by,
In the rain but under a roof,
Watching the grey plain in the mystic haze,
The distant clouds breaking and collapsing,
And the light piercing out of them
From the world to come, the pandemonium of the sun.

      Pretty Horses_ and _Blood Meridian_.
