right now?
i want
to watch you explain something to me that you know in intimate detail
your head down looking at the ground
or somewhere past the ground
at the pictures spinning around in your head
barely noticing that i am in the room
hands circling each other to show the momentum of your thoughts
the ease of the words flooding out
the assuredness of the strings of sentences
i sometimes don't even hear what you are saying
i am lulled by the calm that the speed of your speech gives me
by the manic descriptives
by the rotation of your hands.
by the authority in your voice that i watch you possess with others.
