piano

this piano is always played

slowly slowly it loosens pitch
the drifting keys flex a growing dissonance
but the pianists do not hear
they are exercising ever exercising
as the tone declines along the octades

we
we summonsed we hear their scratching clash
we see their schadenfreuderern
hillocks in the audience
mirthed

enough
i have hired the sphinx's amplifier
speakers the size of pyramids and the rasta DJ

they're on the way
