Incomprehensible screeches
Of children playing
Muffle the humming
Of the machine
In the background
The gushing drain
Gurgles a symphony
In the meantime
Free Spirit - Yes, it all happens in a nanosecond.
Ariel - The 'machine' was actually a washing machine, but somehow I was not too happy with that so I changed it to just 'machine'. Of course, that is my perception. Would love to hear your's and the connection to sci fi!
There is a magic in the air that permeates through the very soul of my existence. There is a stillness in the night that floods my senses beyond my imagination. There is a madness inside of me that overflows in everything that I create. There is a past behind me that is overcrowded with memories that drain me out.

A descriptive verse for a nanosecond in time.
I'm trying to decide whether the "machinery" belongs in a sci fi novel or if it's just a truck passing in the street. ;)
Hmmm ... reality or allegory? I can see it either way.

I have 'seen' this scene so many times back home !
Pincushion - Yes, this is based on reality! It is amazing how you can hear so many sounds together at the same time. Distinct yet together.
good one!
ubermensch - Thanks.
I love the way you've transformed everyday routine feel of it to something poetic, something new and unfamiliar!
Geetanjali - Thanks. I believe there is so much beauty that goes unnoticed in everyday life!
