here’s the particularity
in a great system of thought
it reaches down into a pants pocket
and fishes up a dime or maybe two nice new dimes
nothing spectacular
and rubs them together
it makes a cricket noise
in a way
notwithstanding the flight of the bumblebees
on ocarina and kazoo
the fiddle on the farm
and various and sundry implements
for producing new music
