Mozart's 25 Symphony
Revealing itself,
speaking aloud,
following a message,
propaganda,
only what it wants,
redundantly variying,
mysteriously gliding,
openly loud,
behind a facade of cheerfulness,
a darker tune beneath,
allegro con brio,
one two three four,
three two three four,
a tenebrous silence,
followed
again,
by the higher notes
of propaganda,
slipping between words,
gliding between cheerful phrases,
repeating again and again and again,
there it is again,
secret and mysteriously
drawing,
rising in power,
rising in depth,
falling with a quiet bang,
randomly placing well placed words,
words of threatening notes,
silence again reigns,
followed by pleading
words of reluctant giving,
going over hills
and singng on the way,
until falling
into a pit of moaning,
then nothing.
