Midnight Consultation
I need my doctor
What's your consultation fee
Would you take a song?
For this night lingers
Your skin feels so tangible
Though you're far away
How far and how long?
These paired examinations
Swim around my mind
Let me strum these strings
So I might find the right note
That bids you to come
For by hook and bridge
Healed and healer stitch and join
In metaphor mixed
Sick need a doctor
On your sweet words this/my rope/hope hangs
Lovesick to be sure
So fly to me love
Let this night not see its end
Without skin on skin
By word and touch healed
Byword reconciled away
As silver tongue melts
