19.2.26

a rain puddle disrupted
                              a sink a collapse
contained by red bricksbroken bricks cobblestones  throughout the city other such streets and alleys were tarmacked  buriedhidden from sight

                                             the puddle  unquiet
stubbornly persisting  persevering
its surface reflecting the leaden sky

                                         where he stood he could see in it the old brick warehouse beyond
the huge chickenwire windows chickenwire transoms above livery doors barely hanging onto their hinges


    cruel 

            he kicked piece of broken brick into the puddlesplash  splash splashsplashed disturbed it concentric rings collidedrockedsurged but the streets raw edge puddles periphery remained unbreached  the rainwater frustrated it returned on itself again and again and again  until still
                                                                            mirrorsome again
