Seasonal Affection

virga (VUHR-guh) noun

Rain or snow that evaporates before hitting the ground.


Here would best go a picture painted--or taken--specifically to evoke an uncertain mood. Insert: A man standing in the shallow end of the outdoor pool, water up to just under his knees. Black trunks, blue stripes (if in black and white, two shades of dark). Dry hair, uncombed. Centered, staring straight; a background of overcasting storm clouds.

Foreword: My job is a tennis ball caked in mud, hidden by last Fall's leaves, somewhere in the woods.

Caption: Do you remember what it's like to run without purpose?
