___My body is a swollen melody___
_____spilling out into the night_____
_____from up where thoughts _____
_____naturally occur as song._____
_____See the arpeggio of ribs,_____

____________________________
________chorus of limbs,________
_____my face a minor theme._____
_______I am always seen,_______
______but scarcely noticed.______
And never heard.
