NAPOWRIMO Splatterings 4-8: Nothing as it Appears, Everything That Is

There, there you'll find a vibrating string
Bound at the ends as they pull and release
Frantically trying to keep the same pitch
In a world in constant flux
The string struggles to remain
Vibrating words swollen shut with pride
Pride made possible by ineluctable changes
Changes the string vibrates against
Against change to maintain one tone
One tone of deconstructing om
Om that funnels life into a line
Lines for rationalization
Unrelenting death and decay
But here, here you'll find another string
A string acknowledging everything
Everything including the other string
That string of doubt, expectations and blame
But this string lets its pitch change
The pitch change disintegrates and discorporates blame
As conspicuously as the other string creaks and tightens,
His tones harmonize in the song of life
Reacting to compliment change
Then changing to compliment reactions
Reactions that have no end
