Deja Vu

So much I write, I feel I've seen before--heard before.

In my head or in my eye, Is it mine? Is it mine?

I couldn't bear a stealthy thief in my mind,

Slipping silvery songs into words stolen

from monuments gold or forms of old,

or passing friends in time

I worry. Am I a Proser or a poser,

Dancing words on keyboards

tapping, snapping, hitting that word

in the corner that means

I've said it.

Aloud.

In time. Space.

In my heart, my unworthiness beckons.

But I don't listen. (Much)

There is so much to say.

(Copy, paste and go to hear my quiet rendition.)

(A deep worry of mine.  One that threatens to stop me from writing at times.  Sorry if this is super quiet.  I almost wrote, "Ode to the Technologically Impotent."  I guess we'll see what we get! )
