They're dancing with me
Sunlight…
Come out and shine down
Moonlight…

But, when the President called,
or twittered,
for an intake interview,
I guess it felt like an obligation

although perhaps about...

searching for solitude in the distant skies

Light On the Devil's Chord - Day 12
His words stung me, as the cries from the maelstrom seem to retort
Their scattered, foreign words and wails retching their say
