I should be grown up.
I should be doing work.
I should be doing work.
Que Nenni!
I was reading poetry aloud.
I heard my voice anew.
It is a voice off.
How did my voice escape?
It is living on borrowed time.
Footnote
I blame Terry Elliott.
That swirling gifs beats a nice rhythm and I love how you echoed it in your Soundcloud pic. I am guessing the que nenni is kind of like je refuse to the nth power? A voice on borrowed time. Yes. I am bit obsessed with the idea that poetry is a spirit machine. You put the words on the page, you publish them, and when someone else reads them aloud your spirit arises and lives again through a different voice, an embodiment, a temporary habitation, with the spirit meaning esprit.
