< a song from the 23rd floor >

rarely reaches ground  
   
a song  
sung moments before  
reaches its way  
10...  
4...  
but rarely  
reaches the ground  
   
a song  
sung    
from the 23rd floor  
washes out in waves of breath  
before it reaches earth  
   
their song  
it sings itself it seems  
it aches for ears  
it reaches down  
   
singing a song from the 23rd floor  
a song with words so much like these  
and listening as  
they drop  
they hit  
unlike their song
reach ground
