march 2019 - the michael character lyrics

march 2019

i reread my poem from january and it doesn’t hurt anymore
it felt like reading something old, encased in glass you aren’t allowed to touch
like a museum visit

once i stood in front of the dexter street baptist church where dr. king preached in montgomery and tried really, really hard to make a meaningful memory
i relaxed my body to hazard a meditative stare
deep breaths
but all i could do was stand
and know
and the feeling never came
perhaps the lesson was in the mundanity

i broke veg and ate half a rack of meaty, center*cut ribs after we left the church
at the next rest stop, i walked like i was underwater
rib speed
my body struggling for every muscle twitch, every joint bent
i embodied the heaviness i couldn’t feel
and by the next rest stop that heaviness was gone too

i want to get the, uh, bubbles, but it’s hard
