part 2

The Kah-Kahfonee (cont'd)

(part 1)

It crashes around
Both kinetic and still
And when it goes quiet
You will feel a chill.
You'll think, "Something is wrong.
"There's not enough noise.
"Maybe the Monster
"Has killed all the toys."

And when you go check
It will start up again
The Kah-Kahfonee will grow
Loud and louder and then
What you will learn is
That nothing can keep
The Kah-Kahfonee calm.
Well, nothing but sleep…

Great.

But, of course it's not done. Right? There has to be a part 3 and part 4. I'm looking for some kind of dream world in part 3, but of course, I'm not the one writing this.

Actually, TG, I think "The Kah-Kahfonee" is finished, but since this is the second time the idea of "cacophony" has pushed me to write in a week or so, I suspect there will be more poems with a similar theme. It's certainly a recurring theme in my life...

From the spelling it looks like lil Lulu's vocabulary has been getting to you...

P.S. And yes, I agree with GP there has GOT to be MORE!

I like the accelerated pace of this poem. Works well with the theme. I agree, more would be great!
