Arpeggio


from the ABC set Unordered Tales

We are lost satellites.
Orbiting cul de sacs.
No stars here.
Black holes.

We are bad maths.
Dylexic algebra.
Not adding up.
Lost love letters.

We are broken radios.
We are scratched records.
We are knotted tape loops.
We are speakers without cables.

We are arpeggios with missing minor keys.

We are questions.
That cannot be answered.
