Synaesthetic
Luxurious whisky overheard whistling;
bitter chocolate whispers the storm.
vessels of birdsong, choking;
Echo of a shadow in the saline sausages;
fire laughs in bland desperation.
The magic of musty onions
thrums through zesty apples.
Sneeze-inducing mountains of heady vanilla.
Cherry tomatoes holler coffee happiness.
