Lines

Tracing all of the lines of tree bark

that run across the whole morning,

connecting the city like subways.

I caught my train early,

And traveling with me,

the lines from you I'm reading, connecting everything,

the lines of the sound of your voice,

singing through the buildings.

Lines of your letter

framed in train windows

across the whole morning.

I would read them out loud right now

if I was not surrounded.

The lines of the sound of your voice

traveling, traveling with me, connecting everything,

all around the buildings, singing around the trees,

the lines from you I'm reading,

traveling, traveling with me,

all around the city,

connect everything,

connecting everything.
