Threatening Silence & Dancing Raindrops (2026)


Threatening Silence - drawing by Harvey Dog 2026-08-04 for the 2026 poem "Threatening Silence & Dancing Raindrops".

Can I get you something?
Oh, no, everything’s fine.
Did you see the latest headline?
No…
Me neither…
Nice weather…
It’s raining…
I like the rain,
you don’t like the rain?
I like the rain…
That’s good.

The pitter patter of
dancing raindrops
gets louder and
more ominous
until the screams
of the innocent
are no longer heard
and nervous conversations
end in threatening silence.
