rainday (Free verse) by Bill Z Bub
Wringing cloudbells pealing braingray, we huddle, buttoned, beneath bloombrellas, ruddy handles slick and slippering, grinning through this grainy rainday. galoshed legs galloping muddy puddles, bulletdrops battering scrunched tissue lilies, gasping nightcrawlies subtly crushed, survivalling on 'til scraped by morning's brush.

Down the ladder: Requiem

Stranger than "cloudbells" or "galoshed"? :)

Survivalling on is nice. No, it's right. I'd not edit this anymore as it seems to be sensibly nonsensicle. 9

I quite like all the daft words you use. It could almost be a nonsense poem or a surreal poem. Bloombrellas is my favourite

More fun than humans should be allowed to have. Miss you guys and gals like the dickens. Who invented that line anyway? Big numbers!
