where you belong


now im lingering in white noise
small power tool, Bruce is in his shed
sanding guitars
sonic impressions from video game song
in the other room in another timeline
tires on wet snow it is never perfect
outside but we talk about how 
it could be 
a little sunnier 
a siren bathing walls blue 
flicks of cat tail, too
in the window where nothing harms the 
dust
when the song ends, it whistles out
of frame, cartoon tornado-like
and always planes to O'hare rush 
in from the 
wide mouthed lake 
and i collect my senses
