Homophonic Phenomena
David J Walker
How freely dismissed
The simplest forms
That reason must take
Mistaken
For roads
Not taken
Or feigned to take
The vagabonds path
To madness and night
The phenomenon
Of a homophone
left to its own
Devise
Hidden emendation
Alterations
Of eruditious representations
Truth hidden within
alternative alliterations
which no cavalier palaver
may define

Greek Stone Well. Knot here you r needing any think pattern speech plenty.
Network of neurons, synapses travel twixt to link.
Oscillation occultation Wernicke’s homophonic drink.
Snake, lake, cake, bake, rake sing-song so wrong pattern break.
Slithering to syllable soup rise, pile, group make symmetry.
Don’t commute commutative it logic add up subtract
Divide and conquer, split your reason, left up to you hemisphere
Don’t fear unknown critical though even it’s really thought skeptical
Rhetorical argument a sacrament of fallacy sew a thread it seams twixt dreams.

A Homophonic Incident of Her Life
It’s knot a ferry tail butt an incident of a pour girl’s life, weather you believe it or knot. Hare goose the tail—
She war a guys and one
ate plane idle witch seam two bee a waist,
so she side and sad inn a week sound
knot two give her those dam idols fore
she wanted a cell phone or a wring or a purl,
may be cheep ass she didn't halve money
two by them on her own, or she will cell those idols
to urn money and make prophet write under there nose.
Hole public stopped , sum laughed
and sum pitied at the made
who sat stationery and waited
for there decision.
She was shore that the sun of the manager was a reel kind sole
and he would bee bowled enough too convince his dad
two change his mind.
But the father was to rood .
He rows from his seat and
blue a whistle too call his buoy
who showed his shoo to the suite little made
who then flue and vanished from their,
knot too bee scene again.
Not: British-English homophones halve bean used..

I wasn't there to hear the choir
though once I sang with them,
but I still think of Holliday
at closing--cadence coming up
and his conducting stern, impassive
just as always
with the same authority,
demanding and receiving
absolute attention,
pulling them along .
What were his thoughts, I wonder,
amid those final glorious moments
of polyphony?
And then again the homophonic chords
resolving with "amen,"
his gaze still far away, aside,
when just before the cutoff
he would turn, perhaps,
to look directly at the singers
--that faintest hint of smile appearing,
wrists in last release,
the frame of stillness introduced...
hands in the air...
four seconds of suspended time
and he stepped down
to face the last applause,
what then?
Without success, I understand,
they asked him back as guest
in those successive years
but knew as well as he,
in cadence there is no reprise.

See the symphony of light o’er the sea.
Softly the agony resends softly.
Free rising orb setting harmony free.
Brightly absorb with a song so brightly.
Aurora light from morning aurora.
Song of the night is now operas' song.
Flora delight; like blossoms of flora.
Long is the sight with emotions so long.
Rising crescendo with morning rising.
Serene innuendo leaves mind serene.
Surprising opera; light surprising.
Pristine genera of human pristine.
So open your heart let the light sing so.
Know symphony light, and your mind will know.
