Once, I was the Rain.

So there’s really no one else to blame, is there?

“Once, I was the Rain.”

Well, I guess it beats previously being a Golden Shower.

Well, this explains a lot. From the description [with commentary by me!]: “This is a collection of poetry and artwork [needed in the description because suggesting it in the title/subtitle isn’t nearly enough]. It is roughly [because it’s hard to be precise about the number of pages in a book] 47 pages in length. It is all original poems and artwork [Emily’s work, of course, and thank you for allaying my fears about plagiarism because that wa th eonly ting holding me back from this purchase] by Emily H. Sturgill. This is her 9th publication since joining the kindle family in jan 2013 [prolific, ain’t she?]. The poetry centers around themes [47 pages and all these themes? yikes! no wonder the cover looks like this!] such as Nature, Animals, People, Love and Music.”

I think she means, “Once, I was tears in the rain. . . ”

and then she leans over the edge of the building she is sitting on and continues,

“I’ve… seen things you people wouldn’t believe… [contemptuous laugh] Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched c-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhäuser Gate. All those… moments… will be lost in time, like [small cough] tears… in… rain. Time… to die…”

Suddenly Rutger Hauer bursts through a wall and throws her off the roof of the building.

And there was much rejoicing in the kingdom.

Another case of Colors Good, Art Bad. Neither the title nor the illustration make me want to open this book.
