God's Frequency

 

I could be wrong but I do not think

it can be measured in Hz. 

 

A soft, gentle shift of the brainwave. 

A pink noise rumbling.

 

A rainmaking noise 

like the sound of a head hitting the pillow. 

 

A deep delta sleeping noise, in silence, 

as the word becomes a thumbprint

 

on a thin, grey windowpane.

Have You Seen My Integrity?

                                     It was wearing a cucumber green 
fedora and a gun metal black
v neck t-shirt
                                     Last spotted down by the Batten Kill
under the bridge, if you see it 
please call me ASAP
                                     Do not approach it. 
It has been known to 
lash out when startled
                                     It may be alone or 
with an accomplice,
and it sometimes acts like it 
                                     is confused, but can pretend
to know where it wants
to go. 
                                     Do not be fooled.
Call the police if 
I cannot be reached
