A short piece incorporating three random words, written in 20 minutes.
by Marcus Jonathan Chapman
Glistening notes of piano
Gentle fingers push
Soft pads whisper thuds
Unnoticed but still true
Bow rips
Sheep guts scream
Bow rips
Audience roars
Mane whips
Sweat drips
Baton grips
Beat apocalypse
Ears receive
Hands return
Hearts deceive
Man’s concern
Arthritic perfection
Irony’s complexion
Gnarled perspective
Left defective
Money for blood
Money for beauty
Money for truth
Money for duty
Honey to drums
Aching for more
Watering eyes
The artist’s whore
