'songs, strings' or 'a whisper comes'

'songs, strings'  or. 'a whisper comes'     timothy r gates, 12/29/2014


Songs
strings strung,
hung
choking,
written, unwritten 
intonations.
left hanging.
breathless.
reposed.
Strings
medium gage,
copper
steel,
re-strung, untrimmed
pings.
silent.
window fog.
Anesti!
risen, i scrape the window's frost,
what was thought to be unheard
a whisper comes near.
"Let the dead bury the dead."
this whisper is not another's.
