Work Bounces

Aurora Autumnus

There it is-again
Amber, maybe orange
Half-hearted warning, not urgent, not bored
Blink, gone
Hey, it's back
A flicker, a wink, a mechanical tic
or maybe it's just shy
Could be the sun
Could be
A reflection of something I forgot

So, I pop the hood
Poke around with the wrong end of a spoon
Jiggle a cable
(a confident nod to no one)
Check the cap, pat the battery
whisper: "You okay?"
The engine stares at me
deadpan, unimpressed
like a doctor at my annual checkup
who's just found my browser history

Google says: "Loose gas cap"
Grandpa says: "Spirit trapped inside"
Mechanic says, "That's normal for this model"
I nod
Pretend I know what normal is
Pretend the light cares

The light is on
and off
and on
Maybe it's my signal
Maybe it's Morse code
Maybe it's love
or low-grade cosmic threat
I blink twice
It blinks back
Who's warning who here?

Maybe the car is lonely
craving existential meaning
Maybe it's asking for therapy
or more podcasts
or a different kind of fuel
Maybe it needs to talk
about its childhood

My neighbor says, "It's the universe
giving you a sign"
My barista says
"You need a vacation"
My phone suggests a playlist called
"Songs for Unexplained Warning Lights"
(Now that's suspicious)

The light is on
and so am I
Lying awake at 2 am
googling symptoms I don't have
Maybe I'm the check engine
Maybe I'm the one
blinking
on and off
hoping someone's paying attention

What if the light's for the things I can't fix?
What if it's grief
or taxes
or unfinished novels?
Is there a scanner
for existential dread?
Can I tighten my soul with a twist of a cap?
Do I need premium dreams?
Or just more air in the metaphorical tires?

The light is on
Don't know what it means
Maybe I'm warning myself
Maybe I'm the mystery
the dashboard blinking
the unresolved riddle
rolling downhill
engine running
mind humming
watching for smoke
that never comes

The light is on
I'll keep driving
Maybe it'll turn off
Maybe I will
Maybe that's all we ever get
A sign we can't read
and a road that doesn't care

The light is on!
The light is on
The light ...

DON'T GIVE UP

Listen to the book "The Year of Becoming Gracia" on Amazon.

[verse 1]
She left Colorado with the wind at her side
Chasing a whisper across the great divide
Two daughters grown and walking their own trails
But in her heart, their laughter still prevails

She taught in the suburbs by the bay
Melbourne mornings, chalk dust and prayers each day
Teaching roots in a world far from home
Still wondering how far a soul must roam


[chorus]
And she’s still becoming Gracia
Through the healing and the ache
Crossing oceans for the questions
That the silence sometimes makes
In her journal and her heartbeat
There's a light she will not fake
She's still becoming Gracia
Every breath a chance to wake 

[verse 2]
On a Kibbutz where the Galilee sings
She found peace in the simplest things
University walls in old Haifa stone
Studied faith, but she still felt alone

She held the past in tender grace
Missed her father’s final face
In a veterans bed, far from her sky
Ventura wept while she said goodbye

[chorus]
And she’s still becoming Gracia
Through the loss and through the flame
Two daughters off on journeys
But they echo in her name
In the quiet of her longing
She has never passed the blame
She's still becoming Gracia
Never walking quite the same 

[bridge]
Now the road bends, not so wide
But wisdom walks close by her side
With Reiki hands and open eyes
She learns to live, she learns to rise

[chorus - final]
And she’s still becoming Gracia
Not a finish, just a start
Finding healing in the desert
And the shadows of her heart
With her daughters in the ether
And her father in the stars
She's still becoming Gracia
Just as she is, just who you are 

[outro]
Still becoming... Gracia…

Voice of reason - feat. Chris

Thought I had it figured out
Knew the script, page by page
Lived my life inside a quiet doubt
Safe and sound inside my cage
I didn't need a single soul
Was perfectly in control
Then you walk in with a crooked smile
And suddenly my world is off-style

And my heartbeat's playing a forbidden drum
My steady hands are feeling numb
I'm trying to run, but I've forgotten how
It's all happening right now

And damn your blue eyes, they just pull me in
And your freckles are a story of where I should begin
That a wildfire  hair is a warning sign I can't ignore
I've never felt a thing like this before
I built my walls up so high, thick, and stout
But I can't keep you out
No, I can't keep you out

My phone is full of messages I read three times or four
I'm laughing at the stupid jokes I never laughed at before
We're sitting on the kitchen floor, it's almost 3 a.m.
And every rule I ever made, I'm breaking all of them
This used to be my fortress, my solitary space
Now all I see is your face

And my heartbeat's playing a forbidden drum
My steady hands are feeling numb
I'm trying to run, but I've forgotten how
It's all happening right now

And damn your blue eyes, they just pull me in
And your freckles are a story of where I should begin
That wildfire hair is a warning sign I can't ignore
I've never felt a thing like this before
I built my walls up so high, thick, and stout
But I can't keep you out
No, I can't keep you out

Every minute, every touch
It's becoming way too much
And not enough, all at the same time
You're the perfect, beautiful crime
Stealing the air right from my lungs
The secret song that's on my tongue

And damn your blue eyes, they just pull me in
Your freckles are a story of where I should begin
That wildfire hair is a fire I can't put out
You're everything I ever learned to live without
My walls are crashing down, there is no doubt
I can't keep you out...

No, I can't keep you out.
You just came in.
My flame.
Let's begin.
