pick up that word
pin it down with ink
for if I keep it on my lips
I tend to fall in love
pick up that word
and sow it in your soil
if I let it lay unmoistened
it fails to bring fruit
pick up this word
throw it across the river
for if it strayed in theses streets
it will flatter unknown souls
let it deserve your hands
let it touch you down till it reaches your soul
for if arrived
this word will prove my existence
I will be freed of hung suspension
my excursion among stolen moments
from within my turmoil
will be the homecoming
of this single brazen word…
