this is from a couple nights ago:
Oh how I want to dance, lay down and waver, till the morning solemnity harkens out a new song
And I will be more tuneable then
And wouldn't it be wonderful to laugh the roundlings in
And hold each one at arms length
While their notes spread and led us home
And to the bodies
Of each our own
And oranges fill and pieces of us lie
And the letters they die as they fall to the floor
And with a roar the words pick themselves up
And dust off a new shape
A new meaning
Each ringlet of her hair has me gasping
And each flash of his grin has me knowing
I will never be loved like this again
And for a moment
It's okay to pretend
Pretend that I am madly in love and doting
And the word platonic never existed
And the world is perfect and quiet and covered with snow
And down
Down, down I go
Unable to fix myself
With determination and power
I will wash me clean
Of all things unseemly
Except the want of you
I will wear proudly
The showing off of my humanity
The fact that I'm human
And I human well
Tomorrow will tell if the raucousness returns
And let it all burn
Burn
Burn
Till the ringing in my ears
Tells it's time to stop
