Play and Interplay


A touch of bottled light reflected
Across the eyes
A dance of undulating waved
Into the ears
A breath of crisp air
with the clean decay of leaves

The play and interplay of what goes in
And what bubbles to come out

Let it out
Don’t fear
Lest it be bad
Let it be bad
Or at least, let it be not good
Not yet
Still frothing, growing, changing
Let it out
Let it breathe
Let it leave and become

Let the play and interplay not end
With the black hole of your eyes
The vacuum of your ears
Let it free
Let it back out

Teach me your play
And interplay

Where the blue glow ends
 And the slick dark begins

Where the lean and hunch
Becomes the cower and drowse

Where the time slips
And comes off the axel
And rolls away
And we watch it go

Though it travels as fast as we walk

Meet us there
And save us from it.
