Rain
A nod of pity
for the plain girl
I'll write you stories
There are moments
here
only
yours and mine
To start things
over
again
There is no
distraction
to mask what is real
or if the sky
opened up
and started pouring
rain
A warning
in the distance

"From the Latin word for “patchwork," the cento (or collage poem) is a poetic form made up of lines from poems by other poets. Though poets often borrow lines from other writers and mix them in with their own, a true cento is composed entirely of lines from other sources."
