Blue, the light of my aquarium
Til you appeared Stradivarian
Cherubim teaming and tracing the lilt of your neck
Nimble the thimble that connected each fleck, fiber, and glimmer
A tremble that grew to a tremor, untangled
Spidered my center
Wound through my inner thoughts, an amethyst
Stammered through winter
Searching my caverns' glow for confidence
Grasping at language
Thought I was just another stranger in a Hopper painting
Pounding back another glass of bitters
But just as night returns to day
There's something coming my way
Not to me but through me
A feeling I'm moving, feeling I'm choosing
The questions dance away and leave me woozy, yet soothe me
The scene, it woos me
The question who's she?
And who speaks, the first to smile
The first to laugh, the first to glance
I find myself floating towards her with an olive branch
All that I am, is screaming man, you never had a chance
But then again, I never took it
I've been under rocks, been under stones, to find
Lillies of the field, September, dragonflies
I'm taking my time, seeking one who knows
What I can't hide,
What's on my mind
I just came in here to pass the time
And buy a glass of wine and ponder
You just looking at me funny
And I'm thinking 'what he want from me?'
Can see him waiting for the perfect time to come to me
No second chances, if you really want it
Own it
Plus my drink is empty
Run it
Put your card out
Got it
If you wanna ditch this scene let's do it
We ain't getting older
Look at me stuck in my ways
Catching stranger gazes
Watch you gotta say
I don't wanna know
I just wanna flow
I just wanna dance upon the pole
Watch the dollars go
You just really need to spit it out
I can second that
If I pushed myself up on you now
Could you throw it back
Guess I see you in another lifetime baby cuz
I just wanna see you in your right mind baby boy
You just miss this punana
Knowing me will have a - think he won the lotto
Is it so?
I've been under rocks, been under stones, to find
Lillies of the field, September, dragonflies
I'm taking my time, seeking one who knows
What I can't hide,
What's on my mind
The tintinnabulation of excavation through conversation
Seismic gravitation of planets breaking the silence
Our horizons now face to face and reverberating patience
Is upended by phoenix visions ascending through my attentions
Two glaciers melting
Glasses klink—lean in to speak
She whispers in my ear, brush my hair, gives me a wink
Slinking to me closer, now she puts her hands on my knees
I'm an icicle, it's like riding a bicycle
Now I can't tell you all that happened after happenstance
Cause everything inside me froze I couldn't even stand
Or if that moment was an oyster with a pearl of chance
What the truth is, or if I took it?
