I Just Don't Think I'll Ever Get Over You by Colin Hay

recital

hanging on a word

the magic
imperfections

of things finally coming
together

(like tulle
on a ballerina's skirt)

they make me reminisce.

an invitation,
a lark.
the thought of

going to see you

impedes my
impediment
to success, but

i press onward anyway.

eight weeks out
and i still love you
more than
nothing
on the walls.

i'm a child, simply,
and i wonder

what you would say
when you see

me dance.
