'ascension' descends
on sensitive ears
as chaotic chord progressions
act like reflections
and stick to the air
like a memory.

with early cries of comfort
falling on deaf ears.

and pay attention
to detail
by wrapping his heart
in sound and silence
while pressing his ear
to the ground
to remember
to remember
to

remember.
