Canceling
A perfect off switch
the soft silence of headphones;
Sink into the sound
of classic rhythm and soul,
take me outside of my head;
I want to be free
even if for a moment;
Acoustic flutters,
that high E string butterfly
snaps and bleeds out in the sky;
Turned all the way up
solace inside the volume;
Three minutes pop off
there’s a drumbeat in my ears
canceling all the world’s noise.
