Poetry For Everyday People
A Nights Worth Of Distractions
The air
between
me and my soul
is as the air
between me
and my glass
of red wine
(if you're looking
for me to say:
my soul and I,
hold your breath
for a gold star)
I lay Coltrane down
the record spins
I swirl my wine
my mind in a glass
I reach
for an olive
stir a thought
drown a memory
simmer sense.
between
me and my soul
is as the air
between me
and my glass
of red wine
(if you're looking
for me to say:
my soul and I,
hold your breath
for a gold star)
I lay Coltrane down
the record spins
I swirl my wine
my mind in a glass
I reach
for an olive
stir a thought
drown a memory
simmer sense.
