A CATHEDRAL / KATEDRAL BAT
Shake the guitar
and see if it has any songs hidden away
twist your fingers
and see if there’s a minor chord someone has forgotten
And missing you until it hurts
is no better muse
Build a cathedral with bits of songs
born without wings
try again with the energy of sunrays
that enter through its windows
And missing you until it hurts is no better muse,
learn to unlearn what has been learnt
forget the forgotten and carry on
“Reading is writing in a different way” the paper confesses to me
“all I wanted to do was sing”
I reply
Find my voice while always listening to that of others
respond with actions to what keeps me awake
prolong the moments among friends
Make love with those we love
carpe noctem!
And missing you until it hurts
is no better muse
and fall when doing parkour among hearts,
but make sure you land on your feet
Stroke the guitar to see if it has any songs hidden away.
