on the sawah
reeds resonate
as harmonies
inchoate

discord ebbs
and flows like
isothermal shadows
or disagreements
overheard from
a neighbor’s
tv show

the invectives
of detectives
sound like seagulls
hungry, jostling
for scraps
at the surface
of ocean

and
counter-
ocean

as hemispheric
currents under-
go reversals

as whale song
catalyzes
schools of squid

singing,
it does
not end

the answer
is still

( blowing

in the
wind )
