I know you must stand
Your body lean and strong
Dreams filling your head
If I could take a microscope
And take a deep long look
To better understand
I would.

I imagine your brain moves in tidal waves
Red and blue wire sizzling
It wanders and hums at a high vibration
Higher than your mouth can keep up with.

When you speak and stutter
I don't flinch away
Or acknowledge it with any discrepancy
I knew the moment I heard your name
A moment, a point you would reference
Again
To get me going.

I wonder what DC is like
I wonder if you think of me
I want to give you time to miss me
I want you to think about what this is
I want you to feel everything for me.

I'm grateful for the quiet
Though I always long for more
I made jokes about being famous
'Cuz I'm a paranoid crazy *****.

I wonder if you wear a hood
And look seriously at the camera
Missing me with the same fondness and longing
As I do you.
