The Day of Body Language


I had just finished typing the last words of my brief
Disquisition on God's dark humor when you said
Hey mister put on a pair of pants at least and
Maybe a t-shirt the fancy pajamas just won't do
And that was so aptly you sister so stuck in the habit
Of thinking about things and now it appears to be
A door I stand before cherishing these reflections
But wait wait a while the door keeps murmuring
Eventually your knocks it says will be answered
Apparently I have reached the exact center
Of my life O fugitive particle of time furtive fleck
Gone quicker than a sidelong glance now
My body hums with these few words your fingers
Dance on a keyboard I can’t see can’t hear
