You are so much better than you know


There may be a hold that I have on the situation that I wish I could release
You see it’s kind of a spell
A vestigial balance between bliss and need
And tonight I allow that memory to pass through me
I feel it in everything I do.
And I put it aside till the next time.






telecommunication


Ring
My telephone rings
The sweet melody
Holds me

Tonal relief
The sound
Played in my head
Made 3D

It echoes
2nd ring
My heart beats a fraction faster

Frequencies colliding
The ring triggers
A wave of after effects

3rd ring
I hear the secret beat
In the midi telephone tone
The rhymes that call
Me through
The line
To pick up the receiver
Hold it to my ear
I feel like a drought has just ended

I know who it is and
I’ve been waiting for this.

I wash the makeup from your face
Fingers
Smoothing your cheek

Bloodsuckers
Wait for you while you sleep
If you sit still
You can feel yourself age

Just go
The quiet face
Will guard your ride
The river laws
We abide
and
Tomorrow we will
Not remember
