Accordion



Sometimes

I feel


like an accordion

squeezed

by some

disembodied self


each chord

vibrates bruised reeds

each inspiration

teases out


a latent voice -

rarely

to be sustained -

almost as if


it chokes

on its own

respiration.

Inspiration in a whisper, a pre-existing condition.

A zephyr.
A fuse.
