RESISTANCE
THERE IS RESISTANCE IN THE AIR
IT MAKES MY WORDS FALL TO THE FLOOR
HALFWAY TO THE RECIPIENT
TO GET THE RESPONSE, "OH, REALLY?"
THERE IS RESISTANCE IN THE AIR
WHEN MY REQUEST IS MET WITH, "YOU NEED THIS."
I STATE WHAT I WANT
AND I GET WHAT I GET
THERE IS RESISTANCE IN THE AIR
PUT IN MY PLACE AT THE END OF THE LINE
DRIVING ME INTO MY MIND
WHEN CONVERSATION BECOMES A REASON TO TALK
THERE IS RESISTANCE IN THE AIR
WHEN FIVE WORDS ARE SAID BEFORE INTERRUPTION
AND CORRECTION
NO MATTER WHAT I SAY
RESISTANCE IS IN THE AIR
MY WORDS SPIRAL OUT CLOCKWISE INTO DECREASING RINGS
TO A POINT HALFWAY
THEN REVERSE INTO A LARGER SPIRAL INTO THE EAR
AND HEARD AS THE EXACT OPPOSITE OF MY INTENTION
THERE IS RESISTANCE IN THE AIR
