searoar or murmur rumor or rustle muttered babbling or bubble mumbling

or muslin whisper and sasamegoto sachet mashed on the tongue sussúrrio that

lady companion in carriage buson or bashō could say buson meanwhile

springtime haru same ya is raining words macerated like chewing gum

resin and sugar on taste buds a thing of words saccharine dancering

on lips flowering between lips on interflowerlips butterflying

speech flouring speech yes but now bashō not buson bashō seishi in

the rain dream of shy mimosas and all the time thinking of that image all

like sleeping grass in their sleep of rain samidare another month the fifth

and against the rain the showering rain of may hikari your shield of light

golden temple where that lady that speech hikari dô the curved light

like a golden blade gold curve like a blade of light palladium pavilion

against may's showers and the train racing the train shooting through a tube

of snow pistons sheathed in a tunnel snow glove on reverse rolling

snow tracks the shot of the train in the snow the punch of the train in the snow like a

hole of hissing of whirring of whistles for there where the train stops that lady

will be for there where the train arrives the lady will be for there where the snow snows where

the night nights where the end ends the lady will be her soft sparkling stutter

stammering her rockaby lullaby her tender timid turtledove tremulous trill

of murmurs of rumors mumbling rumbles warbling chirping chirps

treble trills tweedling twitters quavering warp of words of that lady even if

the snow snows if the night nights if the end ends she'll be there where

the train halts the firing muscle of the train cutting through snow piercing the snow

piercepiercing the snow there she'll be there to be there firstcome spring for the

snow doesn't freeze sprightly spring in its halo of expectation the mere verily

verdurous vernal vision of spring that speech which fails and flusters which

veils and unveils which shuts up and sinks that gum arabic of words that aromatic

tamed bitten gnawed on ground pulp of words like biting one's

tongue like twisting one's tongue like someone meting out and mulling

quivering containing constricting predicting depicting inflicting afflicting

one's tongue the bitten tongue aching inside a kiss of words a breath a breeze

a whiff a waft an aura an aroma of words it's only a lady against the paper

screen of an imaginary fan whispering nothings monogatari stories of

paper on a fan the blue oval rising like the moon tsuki aoi tsuki but

ahoj also means hi hello or goodbye elsewhere where the snow snows

and the moldau freezes over where snow's bald and the vltava goldene stadt

spires cusps cornices of gold against the snow flüsternd the voice of that

lady her words becoming gossamer fog flitting fluttering like a body

of fog spring in winter springing into winter when the train snaps

like a rubber band in the snow in the finger of the white glove of snow as the book

writes itself in that suspended white shot of the train cutting close razor thin cutting
