The Roaring Silence

 

Ear ye, ear ye!

 

Hear the S Club jostling

behind a paper-thin

tympanic membrane

 

Fear the S Club

banged up for fifteen years

in an airtight miniature chamber

awaiting release or execution

Underwater
Small bubbles showing air escaping
A slow puncture
and no repair kit

 

Neither full-throated

nor a fruity rounded vowel sound

but still loud enough

to fill the void

 

This roaring silence

A tape loop of white noisy nothingness

A sibilant symphony

A sea of susurrating serpents

rearing up and ready to hissssssssssss~
