Lyrebird
Christian Ward
The hydra-tailed male
has a repertoire of stock
library sounds: B-movie
ray gun, chainsaw, crying
baby. A walking SoundCloud
streaming to the forest.
How your heart imitated love.
How I fell for your impression,
only to end up lost in the woods,
alone, with the moon perched
on the canopy of trees,
mocking me with its silence.
