Jayne Left Behind by Ralph Covert (Waterdog Music / ASCAP) Trying to taste the antidote to all this sensory overload, too much to often. Sliding past the threshold between possible and painful, with no way backwards. The boxes in the hall packed to go to Sacramento. Exchanging souvenirs, hugs and tears, angry glances. Sara told her she should go she wanted to believe and so, no good solution. Believing friends and family or left behind alone would be, each so uncertain. Jayne left behind. Morning will come quickly. Fall into bed. Last night in Milwaukee. Jayne left behind. Change is not predictable though it can be indelible, you don't know till later. Memories are permanent, hours wasted, moments spent, white ink on paper. The boxes in the hall, packed to go to Sacramento. Naked in the dark, held apart but pressed together. Jayne left behind. Morning will come quickly. Fall into bed. Last night in Milwaukee. Jayne left behind. All the rent and twice the space Jayne left behind. Kiss the corners of his face Jayne left behind. Trying to recognize the taste Jayne left behind. Is this emptiness or happiness?
