#2389 -- purring / dorombolni

purring / dorombolni

 

the city is

 

a scratch under the chin

it catches

 

seasonal thing

 

winter steam

fan for the heat

 

there is the purr of conversation

we talk in our sleep

 

streetcar clang

the footpath breathing

 

old refrains

 

the city’s snoring

some would say

 

nothing like a chorus

 

it’s all these hearts

all they can hold

 

there’s never the full confession

 

we’re dreaming of elsewhere

dreaming to be here

 

it’s time out of mind tells out

 

as you beside me

purring now

 

we each beside ourselves
