Orpheus
the singer's lyre
After the maenads tore Orpheus apart, the lyre went into the river. It should have sunk. Instead it floated, strings up, and it kept playing, no hands, no singer, the current doing the strumming, the whole length of the water one long last song. The gods caught it before the sea could have it, and set it in the summer sky with Vega burning at its frame. It is still up there. It is still playing.
Something wordless in you wants translating, make the thing that speaks for it.
