Your Pace

i feel my mind trail off
although i've been trying to listen
watching the car wheels rotate
watching the car wheels rotate
and they,
and they,
they cannot compete with your pace
they cannot compete with your pace

Sightings

sadly i still feel my soul bothered by the woman i have been instructed all of my life to be.
she floats through my hallways between tasks, fishing the whites of her nails through my thoughts and putting a sway into my hips as i walk -- as if this is your home again, and you are watching us.
her structured and deliberate pout presses against the back of my face like a growing headache until i become her vessel.
she demands so much from me: the way my fingers land on a familiar shoulder, the girth and volume of my anger, the mass of my resting foot.
she compresses these components of my life into a tube to become a spectacle for you, a message for you written in slow script on the face of a cake.
and it is like this that sometimes i still objectify my life, as if it were a bored plaything before you came along and loosed me from stillness and darkness. but the gaps between these phantom sightings - they grow wider and wider.

A Good Feeling

i get a good feeling when you shore up
primordial life on the bank of my heart
wanting to know you better,
i'm clanging like a spoon in a jar
i'm feeling something
oh, it's just my hope
thickening its rope
wanting to know you better
your impress me by such a measure
my thoughts take speed
faster by your energy
i need me back in my life
just one more minute in your weather
spring brings distanced things nearer
i consult waters for a quieter mind
maybe our paces will join soon
or down the line
