What is the sound of one of anything?...
Here's a poem (dammit, I thought I was done this month).
What is the sound of one hand clapping.
The same as one lone potential wife-beater slapping.
Not far from one mistimed snare snapping.
Maybe even a dry dog's poor tongue lapping.
Close to the sound one bomb victims dance tapping.
Sadder than one clipped bird in its cage flapping.
Not as sad as one sawed down maple tree's sapping.
Saddest though is one unclaimed gift not unwrapping.
And then we have one Tupac's posthumous rapping,
Not to be confused with one raven's rap rapping.
What about one henpecked husband's fake napping?
Or one poor undercover cop's entrapping?
One percent tears from salary capping?
It all comes out as one butt cheek crapping.
