Static Blue

and so I drive
brushing the air
pulling the light into my eyes
under the endless blue

the children walk
swinging their sticks
laughing and jumping they scatter
filled with the infinite blue

a shift of the wind
a shift of my head
and the sky shimmers and sparkles
above my eyes
a half-hearted retreat
and all I see are walls of static
a world filled of white noise

the blue is creeping into my window
and the cool heart
rests beside me in the darkness
and I'm tired of the ringing in my ears
