Exultant Song Of My Undulant Heart

For you my heart is but a humble harbinger
I dedicate to you
The exultant song of my undulant heart
replete with its fountains, hiccups, and fangs

the cascading chorus of rushing river currents
the meek sough of the sated nursling
the tormented howl of the hunger stricken wolf

swift timid ravenous

these words however
merely sink into a
sepulchral gulf
of grave blindness and moribund silence

only when captured in the heavenly aeries of your ears
do they rise to the surface to join
the passionate roar and foam of the waves
