I have a playlist with your initials Music for a muse It goes from melancholic, to maudlin, to nostalgic to laughable Sometimes in one beat, or less Fast as a hummingbird drinking clear Sugary nectar Wings flutter (Many times, it’s a slow oily candle Burning at more than one end Still somehow frenetic, frantic) Like these words I type That inevitably end in sentences, Engine purring: you Over and over again, a bene-addiction Drawing breath in to savor the savior last syllable, throttle released… When I am on you, drug of choice I feel safe, in each gear No matter the speed. And while I am not a prayerful woman, I know how to knee-down (As you knew) On each speckle freckle in gravel, Stardust maps to villages souls travel Until they get it right.
