1st coffee/Perfect Circle
solitary synchronous symphony
anticipating the isolation post-surgery
I bought this pack of instant coffee
taking a crack on a Sunday morning
“pull your dress on
stay real close”
while spinning CD, rem’s murmur
mumble Michael, you noisy cat
I saw the youtube video clip
where Mills admitted
he came up with the chords
to Radio Free Europe
“heaven assumed
shoulders high in the room”
and I’m reading the last chapter
of a short story collection
childhood friends find each other in Rome
prior to her arranged marriage
she experiences the most beautiful romance
while all beautiful things must come to an end
“who might leave you
where I left off?”

quotes, rem, Perfect Circle, from murmur
