the michael character – march 2019 lyrics
(spoken)
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
