string theory
an often overlooked positive aspect of those who are “high strung”
is that they feel more vibrations than those with lax strings.
i feel the metal in the table quiver;
in fact, i swear i can see it on a bright summer day.
waves of energy hit me like a rainbow of infinite gradients,
coming from you, from everything -
the long deep loud tones rumble through,
the high tight quick ones are difficult to grasp; you have to concentrate.
easy to overwhelm,
the cacophony so blurred, a tornado of offerings, a loss of control
leads to overload. freakout. shutdown.
but sometimes sitting on the edge of a riverbank,
the rush of cold water over rocks stirring a cold wind along the surface,
feeling every rustle of green leaves
and the every-so-slight changes in sunlight temperature coming through the sky,
it is revealed as a gift.
