Dial Down
in my
midnight ride
i reach
for the me
i know
is in there
somewhere
and i take her
down the road
where time
and place
and pleasing
have no hold
where the cataract stares
of the couple in the car side me
have no control
and i crank it up
to the nth decimal
‘til the sound reverberates
a sudden earthquake
and i can feel myself
let go
as Seger and i sing it …
“Roll Me Away …”
“Still the Same …”
“Against the Wind …”
thank God for him
