reworking dark love songs
I’ve been testing the limits of creation
laying down disco tracks and
introducing new lyrics certain
to get you up and dancing
I’ve been listening to ‘one of
these nights’ and practicing
the high harmony parts as if
I was a prepubescent teenager
I’ve been waiting by the telephone
line and thinking about your eyes
writing down every single line
entering my unmethodical mind
june two thousand nineteen
