Music
-Linn Barnes

There was a brief
flash today
when I considered
the idea of
a bit of poetry
figuring into the fray

when suddenly out of
the waning blue
music easily won the day

music where miracles
beyond the tedious
grammar of rhetoric
glimmers the last
fleeting shards
of a hallowed past

where the sonic thunder
of the desperate whisper
shatters the broad lies
and consoles the heart
