A Choir of Me I remember the words to all the songs my voice carries them across the separate places that we keep gathering speed and loudly bleeding the need to tell to yell and the word that I can’t say will not be spelled for fear to say it would make it all just disappear within the throat of time the tunnel is so long with acoustics’ echo again and again it comes back to me from the distance of some other sunset and I wonder if I could make another word to replace what has been said before and not said now what would it be? perhaps it would just be honesty given at wink of each window with torture of truth blinking with sound until I sing with other voices a choir of me You see? |

Lovely Martie! I'm not quite sure that "I see" all I'm supposed to but still a wonderful read. |

(paraphrased...) "I remember the words to all the songs; our voices carried them across the separate places that we keep ~ gathering speed and loudly bleeding the need to tell to yell" Can you hear that the need to duet with you? Soon? |

"perhaps it would just be honesty given at wink of each window with torture of truth blinking with sound until I sing with other voices a choir of me You see?" More than see, I hear, and you write the collective voice of seraphim. |

the tunnel is so long with acoustics’ echo again and again it comes back to me from the distance of some other sunset I read a poem once that said when two souls have touched, they will touch again....and in the alternate sunrise that follows this sunset you speak of, perhaps they will. I hope that for all such souls.....or nearly all...... ~~J |
