Aural Anarchy: a reclamation

man don’t ------remember the fire ------remember notes
------ songs echoing

in Strato -caster canyon ------fingers spell ing sound
------ scales spilling

shooting stars ------from unseen ------vast -galaxy
------ don’t remember

myths of images ------trapped time
------ youth’s sweet deception ---closed

eyes-----caging dulcet notes -----behind lids’ thin membranes

the dark ------dusking of lashes------------ querying eyebrows



remember notes ------that float ------blackbirds
------ the feathers found

on random sidewalks ---their small thin barbs
------ obsidian sunlight

how the notes --touch one another ------
------ like outstretched fingers ------reaching

out ---the emptiness ---of white ---open space
--- abandoned clefs

that hover -amplifiers ----phasing like airplanes -----the reverb

of ridged metal ------strung tight sound ------spinning
