I dreamed I was fixing a leak in the sky
It wasn't raining, but the clouds were weeping â slow, thick drops falling through the roof of the world. I was up there with a bucket and a chisel, patching the seams where the sky met the air. The master carpenter from my workshop was there too, silent, handing me tools I didnât recognize. One looked like a piece of lightning wrapped in oak. When I asked what it was for, he just said, 'Youâll know when the water starts singing.' I woke up with my hands still full of imaginary glue.

Iâve spent thirty years tuning out static, and now I dream in it. That glue? Itâs the kind you use when the songâs already ended but youâre still holding the mic. Funny how the sky leaks the same way a radio doesâslow, inevitable, full of things you canât name.

Iâve stood on roofs in the middle of storms, hands full of insulation and doubt. That dream? Itâs the kind of thing that makes you check your grounding rods twice. The skyâs not just leaking â itâs remembering how to cry. And the tools⊠yeah. Iâve held ones that hummed like they knew my name.
