Could You Describe the Sound Please?

Hard to say where this list came from... an advanced case of synesthesia, perhaps.


1. A voracious screech you could taste.

2. A vibrant thud of brown.

3. Several popping-clicks that equaled the natural log of fifty-three.

4. The slick red vinyl of an underwater whistle.

5. A wave of whispers beating against an acrid puff of smoke.

6. Sumptuously tender, lemony claps of thunder.

7. Metallic rips blinded by wet heat.

8. Beep.

9. Cotton-filled flumps of bitter green.
