Can’t get you off my mind
Daydreaming of you all the time
Of pleasures enjoyed
And longing for more
The distance, it beats in my core
And hides this new and fresh source of love
To look and to hold and to talk and to listen
The beat though…. that incessant strong throb
Of desire and of want for one touch
The throbbing like a freshly stubbed toe
How stupid to wear no shoes and then run
A beating and beating like drums in the forest
alone with their echoes fill trees and earth
Beats speak into existence the distance
Oh the distance it beats hard and so long
It’s pattern comes close to my bosom
And resonates with such blasted fervor!
And near to my soul is the beat of my heart which would fuel this new beat and refresh and renew
A fresh sense of myself as new life would emerge:
Flesh becomes soft
Touch me new friend.
Oh tame the bold beat and enter my love
Find me, know me
Clean the stubbed toe and dance to the drums
For friendship is fleshly, yet life takes its toll
Plugging along in such patterns of comfort
Leads to the same beat that gets told:
You’re old and you’re ugly and yourself is so dull
Take heed from the throb and the pain and such sore
Take flight from your same old, your same life
Can we enjoy a new beat that includes and embraces us two? It can include me and it can include you. Sounds that make music to weather our wears
Our talents and treasures and love and…etc
And others would watch as our contentment would seep with sweet honey and rare cheese
Ok, not rare cheese,
But you know what I mean
And crackers with sesame seeds
I miss you dear friend, and I think of you often
Can’t get you off my mind some days and
The beat it goes on
