you speak
in a distance
so far it’s unbelievable
to think you resonate still
and resonate still
under hands
cupped over ears
in the tic
of eye-corners
of a Messiah drowned
of a Messiah drowned
in words
and sounds
– you resonate still
and places
that never saw you
– nor you
wanted to be seen –
got caught in your elbows
got caught in your elbows
– and the
shattered route of your right C8 –
with the
little note in my old diary
he must have long hair
