Living In the Spaces
Living life in pieces.
Never sure if I am a step to the side
or a step behind.
Living in the bounce.
Swinging from the high to the low
in the blink of an eye.
Living in the spaces
between the here and the there;
the now and the then.
The spaces between the words
provide a comfortable creative space
from which to practice the craft.
A space safe from the sharp edges of life.
I fill my spaces with a subtle song
that humans cannot hear.
Just me and time and memory
wrapped up in a dream of foretelling.
