You are so much bitter music you dancing devil Like a last minute psalm for freedom One that you have memorized so carefully You don't recite it You feel it The buckle of your knees bends you beautifully in prayer So many words in your perfectly timed gasps for air
Breathe on my neck again Bitter sweet beer breathed passion My fingers dance Because I need so many ways to say unrequited So many ways to say Patience is something I can do without
And I stand still like a tree Like the wrong tree And I am barking up it
This is hot mess remix love Through faulty filters Burning up my coffee lung Fingertip singe nailbite frustration
This is bitter music Full of flavor for all the wrong reasons A happy accident proximity Of misunderstood gyration
Hands like dead tree branches Fingertip curl to write Sounds of late night windowpane taps
The songs dont match Though the music ends at the same time Shoulder shrug and careful backstep
My friends are waiting It was nice meeting you I guess
You broken bone remix Of passionate smile Right foot forward fire Perfect pitch like a ***** psalm for freedom
And bitter music
Had to christen my new computer with a poem before I did my homework. This was inspired by a poem titled "If I Controlled the Internet" by Rives. If you happen to know it, or listen to it, don't ask me how that poem inspred this one. I couldn't tell you.
