Hindsight is 20/20

I am here to say this

in only facts

because I don't rely on feelings.

Fact:

Your Mr. Remarkable is quiet.

Cold.

Closed off.

Didn't interact unless

absolutely necessary

smiled maybe twice.

Fact:

People rarely resist me.

He can and he did.

I'm not used to that

it was weird.

Fact:

I want to know why.

I want to know why he's here with an Oboe 2 part and fingers that sync perfectly with his tongue

playing slouched yet precisely and perfectly

a thousand contradictions within his personality

I don't know who this kid is

I don't know what I'm up against.

Fact:

He's a natural.

We're not all so lucky.

I'm good at what I do

but I can't have horrible posture

and a crystal clear tone

I can't ignore people

and still have friends.

Fact:

We have some breaking in to do.

I tried to break the ice

not knowing it went deeper than any 

tiny

buried

impulse of his to make friends.

He's a robot save for a few mistakes

why.

I want the why and the how and the who.

Who are you?

  • Festival

    Long day

    past where morning sun shines and into the dark huskiness of night

    fluorescent lights beating down 

    then flickering off

    a fanfare

    a reflection

    a redemption

  • Instincts

    Some things are just instinct

    like when I just ran to you

    as soon as I saw you

    and hugged you for -

    oh yeah -

    the first time

    very very platonic of course

    you're my big brother.

  • Flying solo

    Your solo is like sun shining through the clouds in my heart

    it's like a platonic ballad

    it's like you are playing

    through first loves

    and forbidden loves

    and grass in the summer

    and crunchy chips
