Picking

Picking

A Poem by JR

Once I was aware of how unaware I was

now I’m surprised every time

I keep all my fingernails clipped short

except the one

which I use to pick the notes

of every song I’ve ever played

I listen as the chord decays

like my awareness, bright strum light

falls into ash gray
