Confetti

Have you ever tried to sit really still? On the floor, in a chair, on the bed? Non-moving, and silent as a rock.

You see I had imagined all our thoughts spewing forth from its mouth, like confetti, all those complicated ideas we had of ourselves. The ones we try to out grow, leave behind and find again. The temptation is like air expanding along my neuron paths, tiny thunderous vibrations.


I can hear them moving across the telephone lines, trying to find their way around wires and electric poles, into your heart that will not call my name.
