From a single staccato note, a tune began
Strumming and strumming from my heart.
Raising my head, then
Opening my mouth,
I began to sing
And sing and sing one solitary
Note
In minor key.
Someone open your ears.
I sing.
In an attempt to grab your ears I
Syncopate, and drop the rhythm, and switch keys, and add some bass…
And someone else begins to sing - Someone who is not you.
Finé.
At times I try to unbuild my walls:
by removing stained red glass,
broken shells,
bandages,
and duct tape.
Then the wrong someone gets in.
