music
runs through my veins
liquid sound
energizing cells
filling veins and arteries
pumping
living water
filling and overflowing
my life
hers
his
theirs
yours

out of tune
loud
enthusiastic
thrumming with
missing lyrics
half remembered
sounds
connecting
tissue to ligament to muscle to bone
fingers
feet matching beat for beat
shoulders gut
heel to toe
until
the last note falls
to
make room
for the
next
