Tuesday poem #494 : Matthew Hanick : Interlude

 

 

Some songs are
for people, others
are for birds

in my dreams, there
are words spoken,

no letters, like
a plum from

its pit, the self
decenters, drops into

a body wading
in a river where

consciousness forms
and music is just

beyond the corner.
