MUSCLE MEMORY Welcome old friend. I’ll Welcome myself to your Innards; wipe my feet on your Tepid veins that run throughout This city of our memories. Standing, sitting, Lying, lounging, Talking, silent. None bring new angles. This is repetition. Smash That concave mirror and See; look out. Oh, and MIND THE GAP. In every name I see A memory. Leicester Square – Where you bought your shoes. Cockfosters – where we shared A giggle. The road to Kentish Town is Unloved, and always mourning. However, it has its ups, it defies Convention – Highbury & Islington is bathed In moonlight; Kentish Town is drowned In a thousand tramp’s rancid vomit. Individual – I like that. It still amuses me: That park bench On PLATFORM 1. I like to think it Was a joke once; bemused West End Socialites, confused by this monolith; This meaning of nothing and embodiment Of everything. Although the lights shine bright, all I ever see Is darkness. Carriages flash past – magnesium Existence. And sometimes I see your face, and Sometimes, sometimes I don’t. I’ll always search; I know you’ll Always understand. I’ll jump – train To train, line to line – just to hold Your hand. This one is kind of related to London, all the place names are tube stops but the message is similar I suppose, wherever you are. |

gpc~ I enjoyed this very much. Seemed to give me a look into your memories... "sit on top of the world and tell me how you feel...'cause what you feel is what I feel for you.." |
