Here and There
June 3, 2015
Here you may sit,
here you may rest,
you do not have to stand.
Here you may weep,
here you may shout
while there’s no demand.
There in the distance,
there in the dusk
the horn empties its lungs.
There is a silence,
there is a stillness
in the breath on your tongue.
Here you are awake,
here you may sleep
to the roaring iron beast.
There in your mind,
there in your arms
the memories you cannot keep.
