Provider Not Enabled

Tried the door, got the same reply

Wrong key, wrong room,

wrong alibi

I sent my name into the machine It came back cold and

painfully clean Four hundred reasons in a little frame Validation failed before

it knew my name

I checked the switch,

I checked the wire Still no spark,

still no fire Provider sleeping on the other side Not enabled,

so the song stayed outside

I knock and knock on a painted gate

A polite red sign says not today If the line won't bend,

I'll bend my route Turn this lockout inside out Unsupported provider,

you shut me down Still I keep a rhythm under the sound

Validation failed, but I'm not gone I turn the error to a

sing-along

Unsupported provider, hear me now

I'm more than one closed window anyhow The message looked like a

final word A blunt small sentence

nobody heard But every break in a brittle chain Can teach your

hands how to start again So I redraw what the warning means

Not a dead end,

just unseen seams A reroute humming beneath the floor Another way through

another door No green light yet No easy win But the room

gets wider When I breathe within

Unsupported provider, you shut me down

Still I keep a rhythm under the sound Validation failed,

but I'm not gone I turn

the error to a sing-along Unsupported provider,

hear me now I'm more than one closed window anyhow If you

won't open, I'll carry on Make a broken prompt into a song

Not enabled now, maybe later on Till then I keep my small

light on
