Onomatopoeia
-- To “Woman with Mandolin” painted by Matisse (1921-1922)
Mandolin held by the hands of two palm trees
The shadow of a woman's back in the window
Small waves chattering
Initial sound, middle sound, final sound
Gourd dipper phonogram Seup sup Seup sup
Chick-a-boom chick-a-boom
Ba-dum-bum-CHING badumbum CHING
Note on the Muse:
Korean onomatopoeia "Kung-dada-dak!" cuts off the tail end of the sound.
English onomatopoeia 'Chick-a-boom!' ends with a big resonance. Funny?
