Vintage Sherry: Grey

Cross-hatch this grey day
(Not meant to rhyme)
Clouds again illumine
Dusty fissures on brick
New York sidewalks cracked again
Again—such a depressant
Or maybe it’s just the sky
Mozart’s ‘Requiem’ would be
Perfect right about now
Or maybe just an organ
Ominous strains against your ears
To make you shiver
Glad you are not alone
In the darkness of grey light
