87- just because

scene I. a cloud hangs lowly in the distance
           just for the ambiance
setting the stage for the players of our scene
no, not quite right, the air quality needs to be a bit more
           hazy,
this isn't right, where are the helpers, the stagehands?
i'm working here, people, i can't do this by myself.
come on, pull those clouds by the wisps and direct them 
stage left, the wind can't do it fast enough.

scene II.
rain slowly putters its soft feet on
the rooftop, mulling over the ideas in its head. it 
cant recall its directions, did the liner notes say 
           fall slowly
or was it more of a
           lazily drift to the right
kind of thing, to give the illusion that this wasn't planned,
wasn't prearranged.
how could it be, there's no reason for rain to be falling now,
you know? things are going too well for there to be
a downpour just because.
