I had an idea and so I tried to jot down something based around said idea.
The amount of syllables per line I limited myself to hurt the whole thing. I don’t know why I didn’t go back and start again. I don’t know why I remained stubborn.
Anyway, this is pretty bland, but I think there’s at least a bit of an idea there that could work if I expanded upon it, and maybe I will.
I hope you enjoy.

I hear a sound
I cannot place
It’s almost like
Metal grinding
It is quite smooth
Perhaps refined
It elongates
In brief seconds
The sound is there
Somewhere close by
It seems to move
With stilled motion
Once more it cuts
Though closer now
And closer still
It keeps moving
I stand and search
To find the source
It grows closer
I see nothing
