Acoustics of hollow arrows

What if Cupid shot you with a hollow arrow
and you broke it off,

would the part of the tube
still set deep within you

resonate with the sound of a voice?

It's like even after I
pulled the fletching from my side
some of the hollow shaft remains
a tunnel straight to my heart

and that's how his words bypass my ears.


And,
what if Cupid aimed
not for the heart,
but the mind?
