Night Music
night music is all i hear
mystic warbles coming out the rustcoloured heavens
and don’t you just hear the nightmusic when the rain clears, the trees give way to meadows, longgrass is a mile-on-mile congregation of the laughing
and don’t you just hear that night music when the keyboard player plays an empty valley
the delivery boy delivers the rest of your life
and don’t you hear that night music when you're sat in your shorts at your beach bar drinking tea/listening to jazz, picturing the motel you roomed in that winter in Madras all alone as you loved IT;
and do you not hear the music of the night when the ‘publisher’s’ declaration on rejecting a tome makes zilcho sense then 3 years later still makes ZERO sense - from him - but adds to YOUR wisdom?
and don’t THAT night music play LOUD when you run out into the country
for the bracken
the sheep chomping immortal
and you ain’t ever coming back???
and does the night music not play loudER than LOUD when all is cast in the rock of the stone age
you ain’t got zilcho to prove even to yourself and freedom plumes your every breath joyful???
