It looks like I’m soaring Riding the updraft of traffic below Never going up..just incrementally gliding down But I’m in a slow-motion flat-spin The only control coming from gravity and momentum I’m not scared or frantic Just observing, knowing I should be feeling more I am trying to live with my faith Not gone and not here I long for passion that would force me from my trance Of swirling The passion of a fierce fight Of hungry *** Of unexpected joy But there is no color or music There is no scent; floral or putrid I miss the smell of God My God
