musical laughter
yodeling interjections;
timpani of joy

for Chen-ou Liu

create new rhythms;

pound!

drum and dance;
deep in your soul,
thoughts of death
will perish

Score

To visualize this 

staff in motion

would overwhelm

the eyes.

Black, bouncing points . . .

punctuate linear space,

as staccato calls

the notes in sequence;

fermata begs them still;

this synergy conducts

a forte of piano;

poetry in motion!

bird song

coloraturas share beauty
tips of trees bounce back
these lyrical conversations
resurrecting trebled souls in
good measure

no base desires today; repeat.
lone oscillating
vibrato which my heart mimics
earnest wavering
fermata...
