Possibly hyperbole
Specific nouns
The mighty timpani drums
Standing tall
mallets waiting
Beckoning for a player
as a bird does to its young.

The mighty timpani drums
Their colors shimmering
The music with its notes sitting
Waiting to be read

The mighty timpani drums
Smooth and shiny
The mallets grabbed and held
Slamming down

The mighty timpani drums
Banging with sound
The intense music never ending.
The distressed player unable to stop
The pain in their cracked and bleeding hands immense
Bystanders pulling them away
The banging senseless and perpetual

I wrote this piece because I have a passion for percussion instruments and the mighty timpani drums always stand tall.
