Like A Banshee

You cannot hear music and noise at the same time. - Thoreau

sporting strange, cat-like, mascaraed eyes

assimilated into pounding percussion

strutting about with flapping plumage of aves

in a strange propagation of rhythm

she danced a mesmerizing dream

black, robed coffee with just a hint of cream

interpolated and in between

or so it seemed

her name?  don't ask me

just call her siouxsie

Author's Note

"If a man does not keep pace with his companions, perhaps it is because he hears a different drummer. Let him step to the music which he hears, however measured or far away." - Thoreau
