A Poem by jacob erin-cilberto


close to the rhythm

 

 

impertinent touch

lovely hands massage heart's incentive

it's a fine line between unwanted interruptions

and delightful delays

 

we just need a reason to procrastinate our song

 

so the lyrics can gather momentum by sunset

and pens gather sounds 

like soft flowers

that don't care about time.

Always a pleasure jacob......
waiting for just the right moment and delighting in the delays can be so sensual, and then in the moment time really does not matter..
