Channeling a Melody

As the music inflates,
  like a David Bowie video

My voice is set free
  for the words to diffuse

Floating above the unwritten verse
   like steam escaping

And drifting free as the
  pressure expands

It cries out the release of a
  lyric unsung

Channeling a melody
  —neither future nor past

  (Villanova Pennsylvania: July, 2016)
