You Are In Fact the Noise

As I listen to these sounds

Hear your voices too join

Seemed to come together then

Joined to part of the noise

And you become but notes and movements and fluid sound

To be nothing more than an instrument

Whose sounds are shapeless and unrecognizable forms

But exist in deliberate tandems


So be just a spectator to sound

Real real spectator

As with all, eventually, "disentertained" by your orchestra

Too with no enamor to odd presence

Eliminated your faculties in this thin box

Orchestra plays on no attendance


Yet strode out to nearest farthest reach on but a feeling

Forecast to say:

Walk 23 blind paces forward

Walk 23 blind paces back

Open your eyes

Seeing everything in the dark


Say not say

Beautiful your lips shall be turned

Not walked past the company's last ashed-over firewood

And if one passes you

"Salutations."

Walk.
