Gulf Coast Lullaby (Part I) by George Winston

telephone lines

(you) stretch your potent wing/span
across

the sky, clouds
arguing

for the pleasure
to

bask in your (flowery) presence / and
i / speak

with you, cross country,
phone

lines

bowed (under the pressure of regret)
bend

and touch
those

errant little hairs / on
the back

of my neck.
they tell me  (i was right)
in

saying no,
in

continuing to breathe
(without you)
and

wake up

feeling
sweet...
