-Tongues Twisted in Melody-

By Revisable Retina

-Tongues Twisted in Melody-



plucking strings of six
languid fingers strumming chords
three Spanish guitars, angelically sinful


-music bends boundaries-
waves slice ears in a symmetrical rhythmic manner


on thy shoulder you rest
sound arise repeatedly over tightened strings
graceful allurement played out by a violinists


-music is all but kind to a feeble heart-
engulfed in music taken aback by sound


fingers dance these keys
with a seat pulled up properly
elegance is in the poise of a pianist


-music mends fragile minds-
creating a unity between notes


breath taken from lungs
eyes tight, fingers pressing golden notes
the admiration of a saxophonist, devilishly pleasing


-music is a need, more than a want-

    Makes me think of the harmony of the spheres, what music is supposed to be, harmony - this is a delicate harmony of its own, unity expressed elegantly - music should suffuse us and uplift us - and we do need that, we need it immensely
