Sickly London Sky

Sickly London Sky

thousands of tear-drops
soar from the sickly grey sky
downwards
from such a great height
diffusing its malady 
a heavy sadness
spreads
and a certain madness
threads 
its way into us all
and I can feel it inside-
melancholy
and there's nowhere to hide-
melancholy
for this sinking watery sky 
seeps within-
overcast.
But the clouds will thin
eventually
and dissipate- 
(perhaps wash clean)
and irrigate
growth will follow
but till then 
we must wallow
we must wallow
in this sorrow
-castaway
for today 
the London sky 
is a sickly grey...
