Guest guest Posted December 12, 2001 Report Share Posted December 12, 2001 Joseph Riley Hafiz 6:09 PM IT HAS NOT RAINED LIGHT It has not rained light for many days. The wells in most eyes look Drought-stricken. Thus friends are not easy to find In this barren Place Where most everyone has become ill >From guarding Nothing. On this primal caravan Careers and cities can appear real in this Intense Desert heat, But I say to my close ones, "Don't get lost in them, It has not rained light there for days. Look, almost everyone is diseased >From 'making love' to Nothing."
