two voice choir (20180123)

Posted on January 23, 2018 by crow

the night sky makes a sound
a two voice choir singing
a growl of cars on the freeway
the belching of a jet
invisible overhead somewhere
between black
star-isolating expanses

it is the same sound i hear
in my head
one ear roaring
the other ringing
the darkness similar
only not so big
but bigger

When one ear roars and the other rings, what a ding-a-ling lion noise that makes! Love your crow mind.

  Thanks, DD. A waist is a terrible thing to mind.

    If it isn’t my waist, and it’s an hour glass waist, then I don’t mind.

You had me at a “growl of cars” !

  That’s the scientific term for a group of cars isn’t it?

    Only in the wild, I think. 😉
