Upon crimson
And gold rug
A Grinning skeleton
Lies in still.
Its body wrenched,
Black wooden,
And bare to
Polish glaze.
Stolen eyes from
Mounted painting
Misplaced and glimmering
In the Belly
Of thieving polish
Staring from depths
Of black wooden
And skeletal Grin.
Two hands as
Two wings of
A butterfly
In grace and sprite
Flutter upon
Decrepit teeth
Of Grinning skeleton.
Its smile feral
And gaping.
Black and white
Bone teeth,
Butterfly wings
And Grinning.
And wings Tap-
Tap-Tapping
On Grins.
On Grins
That Engulf
And speak
In universal tongues
For the silent
Wings, and
Their Owner,
Who go on Tap-
Tap-Tapping.
Stolen eyes
Gapping and racing
For more Tap-
Tap-Tapping,
Watch the
Fluttering of
Wings and
The Grinning.
Voices fall and
Rise from the
Gapping, the
Wide and
Engulfing Grin,
And the Tap-
Tap-Tapping
Until the end of
This Engulfing
This Flapping
This Gapping
This Grinning
And this Tap-
Tap-Tapping.

Description:
This of course describes a piano but in a number of unlikely ways. No one has ever talked about a piano in such a style, making is completly unique. I wanted to descirbe the sound and feeling of one playing a piano and other aspects of it such as its build. Rythm and repetition plays an important part of its flow and form
I love his poem that was printed in a poerty magazine and I hope you do too! - Date: 07/23/2008
