Music is....

A thinking piece

 

We are mortal, yes

complete with

pulses, feelings,

thoughts, drives,

motivations, inspirations,

aspirations, dreams

and so on.

We are not made up of canvas

We are not made up staff,

No. We are living, breathing

dreaming...

 

We each have our own

style

We each have our own

drummer

the music, ancient, profound

new, there, back in the

memory of the world,

music is what moved us.

 

Music, tinkerings, strings...

they tug, pull, extract

memories of specific times

places, kisses, sighs, tears,

crashes...

 

Music is our soul.

This is delightful. I just watched "The Tin Man" a three part Sci-Fi channel presentation of a follow up on The Wizard of Oz. Oh gosh, it was AWESOME! But at one point a character called Ambrose or "Glitch" who doesn't have a brain (like the scarecrow in the original) says, " Everyone used to appreciate my brains, just once I'd like for someone to appreciate my rhythm! It doesn't take a brain to have rhythm because it comes straight from our souls!" And OH! You so NAILED that concept in this piece! Wonderful! Oh, by the way, if ya get a chance to watch that three part mini-series please do, you'll LOVE it!

truely marvolous music is soul it is where many search for inspiration its so mush more its real just like we are and i think there may have been a typo or i just dont understand the line its "we are not made up of staff" i think it should be stuff but if not pls let me know what this line states

I agree completely. I love the rhythm you have created within this and I can hear you say it so clearly because of that. Still fuzzy about being back so I can't say anything more coherent than 'I loved it!!'
