we were drifting, across the atlantic

…these thoughts come to me in lulls.  i swallowed whole what i was thinking.  it lingered on my lips for a time, but there was nowhere for it to go in the silence of tapping and crescendos as the day passed by outside in buzzing and voices carrying like ghosts drifting pass a blowing sunset.  yet, i was.  and i was there.  where i had been didn’t matter, like these little moments we find ourselves in, it rarely does.  but it was everything.  and nothing.  just a trick of an imagination indebted to the images of what had come before that was now so far away.

i can’t help myself in thinking…
