this is my heart

noise

the angels sing
the demons laugh
the lions roar
the ravens caw.
the pen clicks
the baby screams
the wolf howls
the mother screams
the kid cries
the needle releases
the body dies
the cat meows
the dog barks
the thing with the horns screeches
the devil's footsteps
the heart beats
the gun cocks
the crowd cheers
the record scratches
the blood drips
the body falls to the floor
silently
