Inextricable
Sitting on the couch, in the living room
Listening to Magic In Your Eyes by Chaka Khan
Consuming nothing more than the gray ambient light
Of the December day
It’s these nostalgic moments
That brings me back
To the days of dreaming what
My leisure as a grown up would be
In 1977 it was a blue cassette tape
In 2022 it’s a streaming service
The technology has changed
So has the sound quality
Hair is more gray
I weigh more
The portal between then and now
Remains inextricable
