Altered State

Do this for Me.
Please.
Get your phone,
jack in the earpods,
find a playlist
of whatever
wraps light
around your
beating heart.

Now crank it.
Trust Me.
Your ears can
take it.
Just for awhile.

Now walk
wherever Your
happy feet are
the happiest,
wherever You are
flung into an
altered state

that drips tears
from Your eyes
that honeybees
and hummingbirds
would hover
in line
for hours
to taste.

If You’re game,
try a couple of
walking dance moves,
Saturday Night Fever
on whatever
day of the week
this is.

That’s how the
Love
that tied Your
cells together
feels when They
feast Their eyes
on You.
