dynamo


 
 
  hhhhhhhuuuuummmmmmmmm
 
  of hidden machinery

  behind closed doors

  vital secret heart

  acrid sacred coil and hhhhuuummmm

  that feeds the city and the endless light

  garish and gilded

  in every parking lot

  every corner

  arching sinuous cathedral and hhhhuuummm

  nomen and clattering

  churl of this new millennium
