Modern Unopened Love Letter
I sent my musical miniature motion pictures.
You must have glanced at the stills,
not invested enough to watch
any of the three minute videos
of my heart wailing her blues,
plucking on her own sinewy strings,
one grizzly bloody nylon strand per chamber,
perfectly tuned for the right ear.
A few months later you asked,
genuinely unaware,
Oh, you sing?
Are you any good?

Such perfect personification!
Great poem, sad story, would make for good music.
I FEEL this one, and have experienced it.
“one grizzly bloody nylon strand per chamber” wrecks me in the best possible way!
