The Rain That Won’t Stop
It starts raining.
And it pours.
And it continues.
Without resting.
It just kept pouring.
I slept.
I woke up.
And it is still raining.
I went out.
The road is flooded.
My car?
How about my car?
It is still there parked beside the road.
As if nothing had happened.
I went there and drove it to a higher ground.
Thank God it is still ok.
But the rain.
It is still pouring all its waters.
It simply won’t stop.
Up to now, it keeps on coming.
And my job.
How could I go to my job?
All the classes were suspended.
But I must still go to office.
I must go.
But how?
The road in front of my house is flooded.
Knee-deep.
Shall I swim?
No.
I’ll just wait for the rain to stop.
I’ll just text my boss.
Dear Boss.
I can’t go to office.
The rain won’t stop.
The road is flooded.
I can’t swim.
This is dedicated to all office workers affected by the rains brought by typhoon Egay today!
