i think the thing i miss most is people

i’m a sort of ghost myself,
haunting my possible futures
dreaming of the day i can walk into a bar
with an open mic and say
well i haven’t really prepared anything
but here’s an old song

in which existence is held
the larger the frame of reference
of the lizard brain

i remember, i remember,
your mind screams
when you’re running

nothing else feels like
the soft molding of clay
in the right hands

our next guest
is borderline at best
the finger rises
becomes a hand

i slink from the wall
instinctively

most mornings the bells ring
and i squint with what i hope
are fresh ears
against the curtain walls
and try to discern the echo

the new curbs are rounded

like everything else that has
been smothered
they lift bodies
unnoticed
