Dead High Notes
When I watch because I never have
Witnessed or even heard
A be it he or she whomever
Singing a rendition of a song
In a particular voice and key
unbeknownst to me
Because I myself am sadly not at all
well versed In culture or the arts
As honestly i've never been the ballet
seen an opera watched a play let alone
seen the inside of a theater
The only thing I do know is when I see
and hear a singer hitting whatever those
certain high notes are that only they can reach
They screech such pure emotion right
through my ears into my brain
I fear it must and can only denote 1 thing
Once the final note is sung
Someone or other poor soul is unfortunately
Dead
