Sound and Breath

smoke some grass
and listen maybe
 to some bill withers
and after the sunshine
then
chase it down
with a bit of
nuetral milks
in a cheap hotel
to show yourself
to yourself

for a little while
until after that

when you watch 

the sky cry

so beautifully 
as it cries

so perfectly
with a little BB Coleman

in the background

as you breathe 

and then f**k the world

while you die antwoord

to the sound of the fact
that life is a problem
and we are the mirror
for which music
can be an answer
but only if you listen
very closely
before you say a word

the only thing i like more than music is poetry.... or was it art? no its music... oh wait coffee no no i got it now. I wake up I drink coffee look at art while listening to music and then i write music or poetry yes yes i do agree with you. Nice peace here!

Maybe some day when I can train myself to listen, tune out. Sometimes it’s noisier in solitude and so one seeks the comfort of drowning in sonance. Indeed, music could hold answers.
