Hubbub Hullabaloo
Listen to poem:
Crowd grows, din clamours grinds to crescendo.
Pandemonium breaks bedlam into brouhaha.
Hullabaloo and hubbub dulls the senses.
You can't think straight in all the commotion.
Vibrato rattles the brain, panic sets in.
You feel jostled and throttled by sound waves,
Can't stop the penetration of beats and throbs.
The mayhem rattles your teeth, hurts your ears
Now the hands over ears and finger prods
Don't really work any more
It's time to get out of the mosh pit,
To move way back, way further back,
Beyond the reach of speaker bang, clang, thump and bump.
