Back

When it was prolific

 

Back when

It wasn’t so hot

 

Not the beats

Not the party equipment

Not the one night love

 

I mean

That moment

 

Wide eyed

Smiling

Loose fit

Energy

 

It was alive

It moved

 

Not in tribes

But as one

 

From front to back

From side to side

 

Long before

Today arrived

 

Making it real

Too real

 

Straining the breath

Slowing the body

 

Replacing the wonder

With cruel whispers

 

And illumination

With splintered thought

 

Time

Please

 

I have had enough

I am packing up now

 

I am staying at the beginning
