Another day without music
and even the rhythm of walking
has deserted me...
footfalls off cadence with
The swing of path
Lead to syncopated struggles
On any journey..

Youthful days seemed
To be an endless chorus
With each sheet of music
Simply waiting to be turned
And for a conductor to
Wave the baton.

Where has this muse hidden?

Today I look for harmony
And find only discord in the
Composition of daily marches,
As John Phillip's upbeats
Do not feed the starving
Or soothe the wailing
Of those who lose family
To causes never intended
To be put to music.
