The Big Pool

August is the month of universal music.
Observe birds breeding songs from one small cell:
Overnight, from tens, get thousands.

Insulation from weather will produce
the music of houses swimming empty in their yards,
the unsold hit songs of mosquitoes.

You can play the world's largest phone,
but its handheld particles of flaked-off music
are only hampering the external neighborhood.
