Please Do Not Climb On The Microphone

There's been a break

a hiatus

an interruption

a lapse

a lull

a respite

a pause

an interval

But it's Monday morning
and we're expecting rain
again

And it turns out
that the Powerful Questions
haven't gone away

They've been resting,
not hiding,
just biding their time

waiting

to be asked again,
again, a
gain.

Nobody told me
