It's Still Life

The Science Behind Weather (rewritten)

Weather is my soundtrack.
A movement of life.
A stirring influence
of where I live.
What I eat.
If I sleep.
You are music to rain,
the taste of a storm,
that grinding beat
of a July heatwave.
Sweaty.
Shifting.
Utterly indiscreet.
You are a hurricane
dark as drama.
You turn and trend
on a breeze and drought,
and truly, there’s no
sunshine when you’re gone.

written in reference to Bill Withers “There’s No Sunshine”, and the crux of the text
is remixed from an article in the Business Insider Magazine about climate change.
