...Remind yourself
of the little signs
and the small asides
playing on your mind
The shift of air
the turn of phrase
obsession to
averted gaze
Remind yourself
how the field is wide
and the eye takes more
than it sweeps aside
choose to keep
or select the shelf
it's a tender lie
remind yourself
Remind yourself
as the moon shifts overhead
that roll it does
roll it does
and the drum beat in your chest
it becomes a pulse
it becomes...
