Rest In Peace Mozart
Dispatch you, officer.
For you were to rescue me
Just twenty five years ago.
Yet with your allusiveness
and all, I am not so
Convinced.
Sirens still linger
in these streets, though.
As I wait for your arrival.
I am afraid, though,
It is too late for
Safety's sake.
And yes, you were once my
Hero, but like Salieri,
I too burned your icon.
