Ordinary

by

Thomas Granger

Dilute this concentrate salute to mix my diverse thoughts
Arriving here without a clue their there, there where they're lots
It isn't more or less this way because that's what I said
It is that way, "excuse my reach", just like red is red

Distinct attributes override this loss of rectitude
A brief moment of discomfort in the thought that I delude
Fragmenting my heart further from how it was to stay
Supposing that this circumstance was meant to be this way

Ordinary fabrications left to boil soon take their toll
Just before it's time to find I have some self-control
With an opening horizon newly modelled in my reach
From easy, fabric limericks I console to make them speech

I speak of your emotions, yours and others felt around
My heart beats a reminder, keeping rhythm, hear it pound
The echoes shout aloud but I pretend I do not hear
Hope I can wait long enough the whispers will be clear

In a murmur it continues to divert my layers of time
To make them fall out of place, "allowing one more rhyme"
The words I won't recapture float off quiet in tonight
Floating around tomorrow, until I can get it right
