Old Songs on NW 8th Street
Abstraction and poetry
Old yellows and new blues felt so rhythmic against the starkness of I 95
I could feel it in my spirit, I sensed old souls and new lives
The current experienced blockage like expressway traffic
The magic wasn't lost, however: it was just rush hour
These blue lamp posts pooled my attention and had me feeling wavy
New tidings; and everybody over here was paying rent
So of course they were tithing
The temple of God looked like abundance in an apartment
My attention was pooling and once the lights turned green, the current started moving
I was in a whirlpool
The blood of a savior was pooling and the bread was multiplying
The temple of God was filled with friends and we were playing video games
Nothing ever felt so heavenly
I can't remember who was wrecking who in smash bros but once I'm no longer constrained by the confines of time: I'm up for a rematch, Nik.
