Homesick Poem by Andrew Kennedy

Homesick

Rating: 5.0


In a long thin arc of loneliness,
where nothing collides I wait.
Face flushed and stomach in ropes,
seconds become hours and minutes to days.
Rings cut the steep silence,
where vertigo bells sound.
With ears forced open,
this cradle rocks me.
I wish to speak through a thread,
grip your voice with tongues.
Twist and turn,
as a laugh of two becomes one.
Don't hang up.
