PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

here i am
suspended here
at this anti-node
at the limits of
sensory displacement
though i remain
unaffected
by virtue of the principle
of super-position
here there is nothing
but potential
i am at the peak of my power
straining
towards that
equilibrium position

here the waves
of creation
and of chaos
move in a most
elementary
harmony
i’ve been here before
though the frequency
has changed the
tone is the same
caught in the same old
musical expression
with no sign of
dissipation
shaking with a
rhythmic nihilism
feeling neither resonance
nor fellowship
nor inspiration
i am waiting for that
final movement

so here it is
the grand finale
beyond the boundaries
of acoustic experience
oscillating with the
mounting crescendo
with all the overtones
sounding now
in a furious
dissonance
a cruel and unfettered scale
oblivious to physical
limitations
an ultimate harmony
where all the tones
sound together
with one sacred
voice

from somewhere deep within
i sense the beating
the diminishing
interference
as my natural frequency
is approximated
withered vocal chords
begin to stir
does the soul
have an
elastic limit
somewhere beyond the
threshold of pain
one crystal clear and glorious
moment
and song itself
is shattered
and then
finally
it is finished
