Yugen

Can you hear the music
           echoing in the streets?

There are voices too doleful
           to take no notice of. 

Can you hear them scream
           and crying in the streets?

The voices now deafening
           destroying the credence.

Can you feel their voices 
           calling out for help? 

The agony, the distress
          still calling, but now it's too late.
