a tiny Man, Locked in the Lyrics, Barred by the Tune of a Melodic Memory. he Involuntarily Sings along to the Lyrical Entrapment. his Smile, once Genuine, becomes Forced. his Eyes, once Soft and Open, become Cold. though in Reality, Emancipated, he remains a Slave to the Reminiscence. her Desperate Attempt to Hold on to the Intangible, to Confine the Elusive, to Gain Stability from the Song.
