Nod to the Echo

pick up where you leave off
synchronized I heard you said that over
clam shells on the floor

just holding onto the table
would you not make room for me
we pick up where we leave off

that's what you said before
all words coming apar t apa rt ap art a part
clam shells on the floor

neon zigzag circle square fabric
three clam shells of sixteen years
pick up where we left off

that's what you said before
shout out to the quail songs
clam shells on the floor

make room for me
rain sounds velvet brushing hair
where we left off
picking up clam shells off the floor
