TONE DEAF


Blind men searching for a silent sound
amid the cacophonic ruins
of solitude’s deafness.

abstracted bass, cacophonic drums echoing.
fretting guitars, humming in jubilation.
knackish lyrics, melancholy narrated opus.
phrased quartets, rare sonorous texture.
upbeat virtuoso, windy xaphoons yodel Zep....

cloud   strewn   sky  thunders
 cool  breezes  bring  petrichor
 cacophonic snarls
 savoury smells  slumber   sweet  
 liquid  gold raises  spirits

Masti - Hindi word for fun...

As the pastor delivers his speech
and religious fervour peaks,
our heart goes out to those marginalised,
for pale now are their fear fraught cheeks.

In the name of God, gathering a crowd,
witch-hunting the downtrodden and meek,
crass and callous is the cacophonic din,
shrouding love and light, each of us seek....

Multiple sources
combine forces to create
a mighty current.
Quiet babbling brooks become
a cacophonic thunder.

Arcing in sunlight,
a stone lands with a kerplunk,
sends water skyward.
Swept downstream, it vanishes,
no evidence of impact.

Countless words flood forth:
mirth, anguish, anger, joy, awe.
Cast into the soup,
briefly visible to all,
swept downstream into the void.

A kaleidescope of cacophonic carols 
Attacks my cochlea 
From hammer to anvil to stirrup 
To the mesa we ride with timbrels and lyres. 
\Gaily tripping lightly stepping 
Through oceans of dandelions 
Trailing the greening dew heel after heel. 
The brae alive with pirouetting pansies and horns a-blare. 
\Pixilation personified 
The basso buffoon and bassoon collide 
Would the afternoon fawn still respect the Buck-in-the-morning?...

Mute forests, harmony with nature some prefer
Intimate times in her lakes and fields
Cities, huge, cramped, cacophonic clamor
Hit the forest every weekend
Is still pure, when you go "way up there"
Great untouched woods of the north
Another cannot compare with the Great Lakes Splendor
None need try, none need dare as I will ferociously defend her.

Embrace her in her beauty, if perhaps someday you go,
Enojoy autumn leaves, fishing her the lakes or playing in the snow...

  country tunes began as
      cowboy western music . . . 
  cacophonic at times
          cadence melancholy . . . 
  crossed over into pop_
                 captivating lyrics
       conversion and rebirth_

A cacophonic silence,
A mere blanch of a catastrophic faliure,
A maroon in a sickening mirage,
'tis a shade one more,
As a ray one less,
Fairing smiles adiue,
Requiem of a chastised face,
Lay a bed,
O'er wond'rous, to waste.

Where'n freshen lie fast in his daze,
Merry may go his hour,
Time shroud.
However vivid,
a weary slumber ,
Is but man's sorry tire,
Weeping sore,
Once dreaded in languishment,
Once cowered behind the stars.

Not an eye unopened,
Nor a God that sleeps....
