      		accordion heart


      you’ve always said
      my stories
      tug
      on your “heartstrings” but
      I’ve always pictured
      an accordion in
      your chest, the way it
      expands and
      folds when your words
      float haphazardly, the way
      I am hypnotized,
      a capuchin monkey
      in your street performance,
      and as I swing, bereft
      of rhythm, to the pulse you
      bang out in c minor, you
      smile regardless
      and clutch me
      back to your chest.
