Selling pieces of his soul was the only way he could get ahead
They were not large pieces, but they all added up
Outside everything was fine, but inside, the echoes of who he had been became a cacophony
Relegating his self-worth into moral bankruptcy
Eventually, he ran out of product, closed up shop, and faded from memory
Bashing the drums into a cacophony of percussion
Evoking primal emotions from the audience
Augmenting the movements of the partygoers
Till all their bodies pulsed together as one to the…
Cacophony of voices raised
Harmoniously lifting the spirits of those around them
Obsessed with the space between the tones
Replicating structures of sound that evoke primal emotions
Unleashing a common experience
Sending that energy into the universe
They were always looking for a place to settle down in
Running was so tiring, and the souls of their shoes were getting holey
It would start with that awkward silence that announced the countdown to launch
But this time there was no moment of quiet in the cacophony of laughter
Everyone deserves to find where their weird is the normal, and that’s how they knew they found their people, their…
Cozy silver jacket
Hammer at the ready
All we need is a single twitch
Making all this potential energy
Become a cacophony of kinetic energy
Exploding the projectile forward
Recoiling from what was done
Charging down the finishing straight
Yellow jersey amongst the cacophony of colors
Creating a chaotic dance of machines and men
Looking to master the course and each other
Every eye eventually bending towards the end in Paris
Slipping my voice into projection mode
Heaving my words into the void
Ordering the world to pay attention to me
Understanding that I’m just adding to the cacophony
Though it does make me feel better :>)

So many children were screaming into the void
That the void got frustrated and threw the cacophony back
Resulting in an aural tsunami that came crashing over my consciousness
Undercutting the foundation of my sanity
Giving me a sonic lobotomy
Gone was any chance of getting anything done
Leaving nothingness
Existential emptiness

Cacophony of past and future ideas
Hoarded on every flat surface of her office
A dizzying architecture of paperwork, books, and coffee mugs littered the officescape
Organized by randomness and curated by wild pixies
Still, she found the correct form in less than twenty seconds

Capsizing the tin of screws sent them careening to the tile floor
Running away from the cacophony, Flynn kept his head down
Another hammer flew by, smashing the windows on his left
Splinters of glass impregnated themselves into his flesh
He threw himself through the ex-window before the ground finally found him
