I listen for one voice in maze of white noise Nonsense dribbles in and pounds on a drum Startling me into a ****** plateau Fluctuations are never wanted more A cliff to crumble beneath my being Or a sea to crash me ashore White noise taunts me The ghost of a ghost Withers against the deep curve of my back Posture writhing in tension Heart beats in subtle frequency And blatant apprehension Music, I crave music
