thud thud thud, the pounding of the waves
thud thud thud, the flapping of the wings of dreams
thud thud thud, the beating of the heart
thud thud thud, the landing in reality
thud thud thud, the laughter through the tears
as the head lands on the table
in sardonic splendor
and the bliss of understanding
someone understands.*
