Dear Chris

(If something was sent, it is incomplete.  I begin again.)

I don't know whether the following is appropriate for your new "stimulous"
but here goes.

                       The Syllabic Beat

What is the bang of the beat?
What is the bang of no beat?
Under what sound is the echo of fear
of the noise of the anticipated shots of the gun
as the syllables perpetrate their artillery shock?

Is it the war of syullables?
Is it the war of words?
As the noise of silence
carries the fear of what will come?

"You have heard the beat of the offshore wind
And the thresh of the deep-sea rain
