Banga-What?

t he most rediculous sound I ever hear
Is a sound so weird that there isn't a word;
A word to describe or even come near
To defining the vibrations that fell on my ear.

It wasn't a scrape, a rattle or ticking of clocks
Or the sound that water makes dripping on rocks.
It wasn't thumpin, bumpin, pinging or dinging
Or even a bell that was distantly ringing.

I will probably have to invent a new word
To aptly describe the sound that I heard.
If I were to put a name to the thing I'd call it,
"BANGATOOTKNOCKADRIPRATTLAPING."
