“No One’s Listening”

No One's Listening

Fluid and graceful, she grew out of your waist, threw her hands on your earlobes, those half-formed fingers spoke through a bear made of stars pulling sisters from her heart, laid upon the Earth to hold your camera, beautify the memes you hand her, resonate the places she can find / Stupid and hateful, a self defined in pain wasting day after day in an existential play, till the Earth, made of art, burrowed tunnels in your heart, and uncomfortable, you shake your body, steer it where the feeling started, feeding from some loaned, endearing mind / Here I am to hold your camera, beautify the memes I’m handed, resonating every piece I find / And then the stars sing ‘hello hello hello,’ though no one’s listening, ‘hello hello hello.’

Playing what might be my last solo show for a while with Sue Scrofa tomorrow night (SATURDAY the 14th) at Eclipse Coffee and Books in Montevallo. Smokers, bring your nicotine patches, ‘cuz you ain’t gonna wanna miss a moment.

Sorry posts have been so sparse lately; I’m probably going to start journaling my daily insanity in this blog, so stay tuned…
