Something Electric

leave me 
one more chance to be
spinning like the falling leaf
tumbling, silently down -
between the ears, it's too silent,
behind the eyes, I notice nothing
and nobody - 
I feel and hear and see, 
these long-limbed beasts,
solely synapses blinking 
on and off, off and on,
though there is in your eyes
something electric


Thanks S for a delightful day with bipolar weather and much laughter. I had a few exciting things to write tonight, but my eyes are extra droopy, and I think I'll just turn in. Droopy eyes... whyyoubetrayme?
