Lake Ocean Again

the forecast calls for monsters
and whiplash from ale-force
draughts, or drafts aplenty
pouring night rain into glasses
blurred over the top of
a mask, preemptive temperature
screens holding up against
falling trees with the waving
leaves signaling that
no one here is going
to fight the water
or the air
as the body careens
across seats designed
so that you won't miss
a drop or a scene
