rain, rain, rain

by don mckay

on the roof its drone

is the horizon drawing closer for a

kiss, for an embrace whose message is,

whose muscle is the comfort of,

the family of,

the sociability of being mortal.

outside, the leaves have multiplied its pitter

into the stuff of plainsong.

so many oceans to be spoken of.

such soft ovations numbering

innumerable names for hush.

who understands this tongue? no one.

no one and no one and no one.

explanation:

what we have to do in this question

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.

this quote could be referring to the death penalty. it's questioning the morality of sentencing murderers to death as a punishment, because it seems hypocritical. this quote seems to be arguing for non-lethal punishment for killers.
