Singing (Gb?)



singing is embarrassing for adults
kids on the subway won’t shut up
singing is for children 
yet somehow we never forget 

static builds up everyday
everything shocks us strange
who are these singing people 
what is this feeling that won’t go away

we’re barely here 
here in one piece
conversation takes us  
then we need to sing

vibrating insides 
to feel alive
as the night spins dreams 
that haunt our lives

we grow up we put things aside
we sacrifice for a productive life
we remember being happy children
then have them and educate them 

residual effects remain in us
we think of singing as entertainment
but what if it’s as necessary
as eating, sleeping, or love?
