Thinking Hybrid Redirected - Emily Elbert

It’s just more of the same changes*

Headphones can only take me so far away

This is the point where I reassess my arrangements

It’s time to revert to what needs to be saved

Cause I’ve spent too long with my shoes on

Let myself start to play it safe

And my reactions became the factions of a misdirected race

Speaking of race, I’m compelled to run

Off the charts of what’s expected

Once again, I will follow the sun

Thinking hybrid;

redirected

To finding melodies in the white noise

Secret passageways and doors

Trace the trails of forgotten flying creatures

I will never, never again ignore

Speaking of creatures, I’m compelled to fly

Off the charts of what’s expected

Once again, I will channel the sky

Thinking hybrid;

redirected

A dive into the rain is an awakening;

a sudden gust of wind

So as the storm brings forth the green progression

I too, will grow again

I am aware, awake, and able

I am digging in living land

Balanced, yet affected

Perpetual I climb

Above all, I am connected

Thinking hybrid;
