In an instant as this is the process begun,
a selection is made from an infinite choice,
each is placed in its turn on the merits of one
which can best serve to lend our expression a voice.

Once the tempo is set, as a pulse it becomes,
running constant and true as the passage of time.
On occasion to seem as a song that one hums
whose succession of notes downward spiral and climb

on a scale that is set where ones' thoughts hap' to lead.
Captured here, in mid-page, with a wave of a wand
sounding sweetly to ears grown attuned to a need
for expression to free itself unchained from bonds.

There to linger a time in a sub-concious haunt
like some demon had penned it with intent to taunt.

Sometimes the music is ominous, isn't it?

I so admire your art, m'friend.

And yanno? I take this to heart, because I generally write the stuff that just won't shaddup in my head.

I've missed you, lovie. I'll try to pop in more.
