Considering Considering you're not around I might try clumsily to move on considering the absence of sound I may alight my heart with song Aligning frightening dreams with you considering the company I keep it's a wonder I'm not even through with considering and staring in the mirror at my own soul, asleep I just can't get beyond you there's no way I could make do no no, no kind of screaming fear it's amazingly quiet here considering Pondering the moment not gone I might try to reach for the phone comiserating, hating the coming dawn I can't find you, the path is overgrown No, I just can't get away from this, the lingering air you breathed into a kiss oh no, it's a stretch to come near to the beauty you have left here considering Reminded of my choices that lead you away withering and considering, there I'm defined by the constantly correcting replay words not carefully considered the wary winter all alone within myself, I'm resigned Considering you're not around I might not make it to the dawn rescinding my heartspeak sound but say you haven't yet moved on and you'll accept my surrender please just consider it "Hey, it's me, I'm dynamite and I don't know why" -- Van Morrison, 'Sweet Thing' |

Ineteresting use of repetition in different contexts. It give the poem resonance and depth. a good commitee can decimate communication. |
