Facing the Music

Who more prepared, To face the music? A musician? Right? Nnnooooooo..... Musicians are arty, Vaporous to everyone else's reality... Ask a musician the highest high... He can't quite say just why.... It's not love, Not sex, not fame, Not money, not wisdom... It's that magic moment... When it all clicks.... You're improvising... In tune with your mates... In some mystical way.... You speak to each other In sounds, in feelings... And that unexplainable, indescribable, exquisite, ecstatic shift into a whole other reality that seemingly only another musician understands.... There are no descriptive terms... You may get goosebumps, You may feel put on auto-pilot... You needn't think at all... The musical journey to the music of the spheres Conducts itself... You have entered another realm of reality... To taste nirvana... A drug you will there after always crave... You are a part of creation... You have peaked in emotion... You are forever changed.
