Lyrical Valentine (for R.A.)

Think about several things
the subject could be doing
during the riven moment
which would still qualify it
as lyrical not merely quizzical
as when we listen
to a poem in a language
we don’t understand we
still grasp the better half of it
a certain music of arranged  
vowels and consonants
before meaning something
intervenes with its stop and go
its worrisome come to me.
