from Shy Green Fields

Great song, as in not alone, think about

what's possible, not imaginary but picturing


the uncountable kicks of you, danced,

milk blue, the test results declare we are


all magnetic, that we each have our own

humming sound, a radio frequency, I


am turning into you, tuning into you.
