sound spectrum

so what if i haven’t
given up, if i keep

testing this voice
on the edge of the wind,

stringing versions of what
i’m trying to say, revising,

then taking it all back,
tomorrow and tomorrow?

don’t listen if you don’t
want to, if to you

it’s nothing. pretend
it’s the rain; something

background you
can sleep through.
