They say that to write poetry
I need to learn a certain art of enunciation
A certain way, of collecting my words together, in a jar
To form sentences on four lined verses,
Like that one above, but this makes it my fifth line
–
And you; break all the rules of right and wrong
Like you, I don’t want to write just poetry
I’d want to write a million and one songs,
And never publish any,
–
But gather the lot of them into a box
And pass it along to you before I die,
then you can listen to me for a million and one times
And you’d smile and let go of that cry
–
because a million and one songs,
Can take an eternity to be heard
Or, just a one long extended night and day
Even a moment can encompass it all
–
Just this moment, is eternal
Like all moments I spin with you
Round and round and around
Never dizzy from the sound
–
I saw a moon rise in the morning
But remembered I was just day dreaming
And my thoughts spilt out here
Now you can see me, through the screen
