trapescape
the devil had
a trap-set
for me
i lost my soul
to the frenzy
of the a cappella band
whose rhythms consumed
my primordial reason
songs without words
flew me on silent wings
where Mendelssohn
had never
learnt to sing
cacophony
gave birth to aphony
and sax and sex
stood vexed
in lust’s annex
i played his game
he played my melody
i jammed with him
in perfect harmony
but when i
hit ground bass
and caught my elegy
on his broken g-string
i realized
the devil
had a trap
set for me
and i ran like hell…

Sky_dancer, thanks for giving me something for which to strive. So much to learn at DU and you are part of the curriculum. I really appreciate your continued support.
PS Have you visited the graphic (online) version? It's what I really mean to show in most of my work but the template is limited here. You will find it at: http://mydo.cx/N2Q0OWUz
Blessings.

I would love to read this - but I honestly cannot! I have even blown it up and it become pixelated. I am wondering how the others read it.
Secrets please!
I Love the visual!

Thanks for the visit, Ahavati.
My apologies; you're not intended to read the graphic here. There is a literal as well as a visual version of the poem, both of which have the same text. A link for the visual version (as for all my graphic poems) is on the page. Here it is:

Once you go there, Foxit Reader Online has a zoom button for as huge as you need to get. Please take a look and tell me what you think.
I suppose the link is the only (open) secret!
