Synesthesia

Lately I’ve been 

feeling music

I am not sure 

if my neurons are shifting

or if I never let myself

do it earlier in my life

one more thing 

I believed

when they told me 

it was impossible.

Touch is turning 

into notes

and I think it will be 

part of the harvest

it doesn’t seem to overwhelm

it is just a song of feeling

coming into 

the core of me.

Hopefully

as in my dreams

it will help me 

to write melody

out of my unconscious 

from the unedited places 

in the recesses of my 

spirit.

Hopefully 

it is a sign of flowering

not of decay

but if I am suddenly 

struck down

know that I was

full of singing 

right until the end.
