"Reluctance"~ January 15th, 2009

reluctance...

muscle shoals string
cramping piano wire
'round thoughts dispersed
in arabica beans drag
to warmer thoughts...

a button's red light
flipped to gurgling gasp,
as sitting, wrapped in
friendship gift's shawl,
flaky dried skin
from fingertips
meets repetitive clicks
of plastic communication...

eyes occasionally meet
dreaded reminder of a face
that tells of what lays
ahead, hours of complaints-
fiberglass planes that
bear industry logos,
numbers, manufacturing
defects, and replace-able
parts.

all the while, hoping,
wishing, that flesh parts
were just as replace-able...
