Decibels

Decibels

pass through a plane

to Istanbul or Turkestan

frequencies rise

up and up and beyond

clouds of segmented

caterpillars

and faded lizard tails.

 

Sounds

unfold between

Malleus and Incus

vibrations within revolving doors

bang, bang, bang

hammer to anvil

pound out

peace on a tiny dot.

  1. I like it. I don’t understand all of it. What does Mallory’s mean? Cool ambient rhyming. Peace on a tiny dot…hard to come by these days.
