who gets the thing that makes you tick
The world goes round. One day
you find someone who knows—
who gets the thing that makes you tick
gets it right and gets it quick
No words can tell the joy in this
You might as well be mute before a fire,
rapt in its flame—
Enjoy its heat
Listen to its embers hiss
