Listen to poem:

Jinglejangle

tippy-toe tap tap
pitter-patter slosh 
splish splosh, splash,
drip of tap
purr of cat
twits of bird chat
ratter tat, ratter tat 
knocks on my door.
The unintended muse
was stifled 
by the hiss of bliss
perusing the lines
while muffled mute, 
ignoring
what was installed
between them,
instilled!
