Harmony Heard Dissonant

teetering so far above the pit of open mind

blissed inside this ivory tower

freely drinking of the sights

and sounds in savory assay

doting on remote invocations

in scarcely tangible realms of outreach

cries heard underwhelming

transmuted through the mile's diminish

our soul's erosion rising

into the stark and stagnant air

bitter cold molecules compressing

caressing naught but restless distance 

harmony heard dissonant

when painted by deadened pixels

affixed beyond forbidden window

fraught with infiltration

as deemed so by this scant perception

the spectrum all but slivered

whittling away inflections

leveling this lucent bow
