I’ll be the next to go // Surely, we’ll see each other soon Lyrics by Massa Nera
no estamos separados
2016
A flash A spark in your eye That quickly recedes from vision Replaced with Faces half-formed And memories half-invented A dream-state masquerading As your waking life You live with Vague ideas Concerning Limitless potential ‘til you’re blindsided by The passing of time And realize you’ve run Out of options And suddenly You’re aware of Your mortality Death casts a shadow Over everything you do The present is intangible Infinitely divisiblе Out of reach A flicker of light Shows us wherе we’re Set to wander ... Outside a five-story tenement, in a city where it always rains A car waits On Mabbot Street, stumbling next to children shaken in St. Vitus’ dance, we phase in and out of personas A clarion call sounds from miles away, the Aural embodiment of our collective unconscious I hear it all from my apartment We used to laugh about this So I return to that class, the one that used to meet by the lake The one we swore someone had drowned in You were there, sitting under an old redwood (I forget what we used to call it) Scented of soap, buttons bound with salt, speaking little Yes, your boyfriend wove through an infinite loop While you quietly dreamt of westerns Saying “Okay, I’ll be part of this world.” There were sirens passing St. John the Apostle I was up the street near the Temple Beth when I heard them Not swept up in a terrible tremor For in the pit of my stomach I knew A waltz sailed through an open window and despite everything I smiled Because I knew you didn’t die in 4/4 time I remember staring at constellations, wondering where forever went So you told me that everything flows into everything else That a shout in the street might be god or a note in the orchestra Each wave passing faintly and faintly passing through the universe I return to that now, in this life of limited options You’re so far away, reduced to a handful of traits I know this will never be good enough But even though I can’t capture your essence (somehow I know) We’re not separate Hell may be other people, but then truthfully, so is heaven We’re not separate This is but your first death I’ll keep speaking your name
