Impromptu

my heart 
beats softly
for thee and
for thee beats
broken beating
slower and slower
i've flat lined______

paddles
charged
         clear 
electricity spike
milligan for a millisecond
_______________________
wait a minute begin again Finnegan 

wake
to find
my friends
in rhyme not
rhythm sitting in
with the heavenly band
but not one knows a single note_______
