oh, how i miss you. (circular songs)

Is it necessary?

not in a sense of soaking my thumbs in vinegar.
not in a way of wearing blinders.
it is an always pulsation which peaks in and out of mind motive.

it can only be forgotten in another wayward hour.
a part from being business.

apart from black marks.

a part from electric pines.
in another sense, it is, sometimes, peace of mind.

quiet time.
