I am the conductor of acoustic hell
by knees which flutter enthusiastically,
like the peach wings of a hellish moth grown large
and emphatically beyond its threshold
for flight. Whilst Earthbound, I felt my heart expand
as we made mockeries of perennials
by way of our combined humor, as a band.
It was much like old times, when we didn't care
about anything besides the motion of
whatever haphazard song we'd constructed.
All the while our pace seems to increase with
the urgency that accompanies each year.
