Backing the Printed Sound
allegro filters
vanish through the carwash
impresarios return
an effort
empty by
chance design
to wilt
in the vagaries hatch
the crescendo avocado myth
to the sample
audience cage
a modem rehearsing in cursive
*
any protrusion
less than elegant
reverts to script
according to type
faced
an audio
liter bottle
new screws attached
membranes shattered
decibel recurrence glass
as chronic problem memories
a tonic can resolve pitch
sound fragments
to find
and font
a front
that intones a reason for its back
