Australia

Sydney, Australia. This is how the clouds sometimes work ...

Fallen Clouds

The clouds have fallen from the skies
How could that happen?
Shit, it was such a nasty fall ...
 
I picked them up and took them home with me
They told me they fell to the pavement
Because people had lost their feeling for them
“No one looks up anymore”, the clouds said that
 
People don’t see the magic anymore
They don’t believe in mystery
They believe in concrete things
They believe in shitty things
The clouds said that...
 
We got so bloated with our tears
We got so heavy with our tears
That we fell out of the sky
Who would believe that?
 
People would probably say that clouds don’t cry
But what the fuck would humans know…
