Away from the drum tricks of a last insane musical legacy
I find the blue heart of Mozart, in the last esoteric music sheet
that his
eye lashes trace with the tears quill every night
on my pillow sheets,while
the pitches of the silences
between the notes, a musician's clever scarecrows
banish away the anguish of the genius in the confines
of his inner labyrinth.
And
I open each and every door
to the sun rises and the sunsets and bring home
at last the crystal sounds of the skies storms. Cry deeply.
Amadeus
child hand wrote the eternity keys on the music sheet
to open the mirror jails
of the menuet steps..
Yet,
his tiny trusting soul,
they kept locked for months to force it on the hellish
task
of writing a requiem against a bag of gold.Cry deeply.
Play
Mozart the blue notes of the Menuet, you have done well
they keep loosing
you now over and over among the broken pieces
of your heart, mine, united
by death infamous, by eternity glorious.
the Menuet you have brought to me in truth, soul to soul,
our graves shall
forever be unmarked but for one lonely Menuet
that shall resonate in eternity
in the echoes of the cattle's vain maddness
