(scroll down to hear the YouTube video of Tamacun by Rodrigo y Gabriela)
My best fantasies
Are created on the elliptical
A time when there is only me
With earbuds serving
A dual purpose
Oxymoron, really
Because there is
Sensory deprivation
So I see my four dogs
Like silent Charlie Chaplins
Cavorting around the yard
But also
It is me and the music
Glorious, stereophonic,
Cacophonous music
Hiding the burn from the pedaling
Creating a borderland
Between the material world
And a waking dream
Existing, even with open eyes
It is a place where silence
The silence of reality
Is overshadowed by
The beat of fantasy
The real reality
Of my musical life
