An Amusing Music Muse
I suspect I'm more interested in how Sondheim writes music
than the Beatles,
Although I have no information
to support this paltry hypothesis
Much less could I justify to patient well-versed you
why I also suspect
this tells me something about who I am
And vocationally about who I am meant to be
as a gospel communicating person,
a transporting soul
sharing sung enchantments.
Does linguistic content
inform mystery's melodic message?
Or do melody and rhythm reign
before shaping
unfolding
ecological
psychological
theological lyrics?
Or all of these sacred ingredient voices
speaking with secular integrity
Above?
Deep love learning below
