So Many Meanings

Don't Give Me Any Static/Poem

So Many Meanings

an unwanted confrontation

as tingles emerge underneath

sitting motionless and hissing

a snap awaiting its release

it's trouble in the making

unsure how tension is perceived

a shock and awe awakening

beyond what energy can see

distorted voices interrupted

interference crackling

communicationally obstructed

a sudden strike disrupting peace

so many ways you can define it

it's hard to put your finger on

a spark that suddenly emits

leaving a sting upon your arm

stirring up trouble or excitement

in an attempt to increase charge

be it with electricity, enlightened

or a fight that needs recharged

either way is symptomatic

arising from another cause

there is no way to deny static

as your hair stands up for its applause
