Standing alone below the thrumming
crazy beautiful

with my heart a hundred miles
north of my body,

my talented heart-memory
remembering

the lips of a nameless woman,
a woman identifiable only
by her heat + roughness.
A little thing written a couple of days ago.

This feels achingly familiar. "with my heart a hundred miles / north of my body" just resonates. It's like a tiny glimpse, a fleeting look at something so deep it's impossible to fully reach into. Lovely.
