sing me a song
::
what you said was always so different
than what you meant
and what you meant was almost
never there.
::
but you had that smile
playing music in its curves
one note always stuck
to the corner.

Man oh man, I so wish I’d written that first verse. Damn, that’s good stuff.
Take warm thoughts with you tomorrow, and I shall take this poem with me. Fine, fine work here. Really, quite good.

Ideal insight into the charismatic one. Nothing wasted, nothing unsaid.
Well done.

Beautiful poem. And being a musician, I really appreciated your use of music references.

Hit that on the right note, as this can be seen day in day out.
