It's Kobe day
I wonder how many fadeaways rip the net the same time as mine
I wonder how much I'm taking for granted
Spiders start showing up in unexpected places
ones that make sense but still, not the usual places

Radio is really amazing,
when you think about it
Signals go out like webs and
I get stuck between channels
Tell me,
are the currents moving like Air or
like Gravity?
One way streets
Am I in-tune?
How's my body language?
Consistent enough
to keep up with a frequency?
iii.
Am I receiving your signals
Earth catcher?
The noise watering
things down
caught up with
summer rain
valleys of
should’ve would’ve could’ve
Messages beyond the fears

Desert rose
Still not the usual places
Crossing the bottom and running into spiders
Makes it feel less like a desert
More ancient
More like the ocean floor
But the air is hot
I tell her I need some distance
She understands but
still leaves a mark,
The ground,
the grounding,
Following shooting stars
recognizing currents and one way streets
Are you receiving me?

Father missing
Desires as houses
Bricks of the wrong material
Relearning to stand
And Cash,
Cash does a magic trick
Where will he go?
vi.
Is this how I'm supposed to be feeling
in between these lines?
