A Rythm
What’s in my head right now
A rhythm plus a beat
Skip the next two, and take a second to breathe
Inhale, intake, new day, new say
New way
to live with a smile that I won’t just make
but I’ll feel in every strangely renewed fiber
of this being I’ve only just met
We get along nicely, don’t you think?
Notice an unweighted step, taking her and me
and me and her
ten times the length of any basin between I
and where our hearts connect
Pounding a rhythm plus a beat
Skip two more, still I have so many words to speak
and for you to hear
from me
