READY TO SETTLE

         Leave me in this eddy
                in this idle tidal pool

         I am ready
            to settle
            not to settle for
            to settle with
            to settle down
            to settle into
                        a steady
                                    loving
                                                with you

 

I am steady
            in an eddy
floating
            on a float

Gentle rocking
            from wavelets lapping

Gentle rustling
            from leaves brushing

while I'm steady
            never better
            like butter soaking
            into toast

and I'm ready
            like flannel bedding
            that keeps me
            warm as toast

 

         Leave me in this eddy
                in this idle tidal pool
         I need your steady loving
                as time flows by

 

         And I want you to know
         I am ready
                        steady
            to settle
            not to settle for
            to settle with
                           down
                            into
                        a steady
                                    loving
                                                with you

 

         Sometimes
         I unsettle
            the settling
         Sometimes
         you pull back
         we lose track
         crack
            the steady loving

 

         But I need you to know
         I am ready
            for the steady
                           settled
                                     living with you
         I am aching
            for the steady
                           settled
                                      living with you

 

Autumn sunshine
            heats the coolness
Leaves glow
            tinged with brown

as I'm steady
            floating
            coasting
            soaking
                        in the sun

Toast
            with jam and butter
            with juice and coffee
            with yogurt and fresh fruit
                                    is settling in my stomach

while I'm readying
            for lunch
while I'm holding steady
            in an eddy
floating
            on a float

 

         And I want you to know
         I am ready
                        steady
            to settle
            not to settle for
            to settle with
                           down
                            into
                        a steady
                                    loving
                                                with you


         Leave me in this eddy
                in this idle tidal pool
        I bask in your steady loving
                as time flows by

        And I want you to know
        I am ready
                        steady
            to settle
            not to settle for
            to settle with
            to settle down
            to settle into
                        a steady
                                    loving
                                                with you

 

You move
with determination
across the field

stand steady
on the shore
watch me floating
on the float
in the eddy

You're unsure
should you get wet?
but you breathe
contentment
in and out

Our gazes meet
hold steady

Ready
            Ready
            Steady

Ready to settle

A dozen years ago,
I began to wake up
with word pieces -
words music, spoken word, songs -
in my head.
Escape velocity.
Echo of the echo.
Tank almost empty.
Can't cross the gap.
Welcome into my world.
