Vibrations (2012-13)

  

When I touch her face

With the tips of my fingers

I feel the vibration

Straight through

The palm of my hand,

Like a cat’s purr

Or maybe an electric motor,

A hum so much apart of her

I sometimes hear it

When seated many feet away,

Or even over the telephone

During those dark

Yet amazing moments at night,

A vibration that causes me

To vibrate, too

Sympathy pangs

That is more than mere

Attraction,

More than a response,

It is something she is,

Something she can’t cease being,

Like a pulsar in space

Broadcasting some message

She can’t help but send,

A vibration though my fingers

I feel in my soul.
