where are my galoshes?

we talk about
the rain
as if it's never rained before.
how the river
has crested,
the flash flooding.
the pools of standing
water
to be careful driving
through.
is the bridge out?
has the levee broken?
we look up
at the sky and squint
at the grey clouds
bursting
with even more rain.
we wipe our eyes, then
grab our umbrellas.
how will we survive
such inclement weather?
who knows, 
but coffee first.
where are my galoshes?
