Stethoscope

All they ever notice

Is the rhythm of the leaky faucet

Of the endless cricket chirp

As they howl like wolves

Throughout the twilight of your mind

I saw into you

I felt your bark

I felt your bite

I felt your velvet flower petals

As you felt mine

We’ll just leave them to the rhythm of the rhyme

All they’ll ever understand

As I roll over the hills

Like somersaults woven through a morn

I search for a bookmark

Between mountains of confusion

I dig for needles under haystacks

Dig for the rhyme within the rhythm

The meaning hidden in it all

Hidden like a cat hides from a dog

I’ll know so soon from now

I comfort you

I comfort me

Our love so strange, so deep
