The Old Guitarist, Picasso - A Duet by Lioness Onpaper and Di11y Da11y
The searing sun has long been a revolving revelation of angst,
repelling songs of the skies, sung by the strings of the wings.
Pallid, poised only by muscle memory - a compositional backdrop,
past the point of revival, yet something inside me still ticks.
A trembling truth that never drifts,
these broken blues: a silent shadow with loud hues.
The bones

The Guitarist
He played on the guitar like a pizzicato
Who frequented one too many bars
Always demonstrating
A wonderful amount of restraint
Even during the main feature
At the local drive in
In the end
He came to realize
How much he loved pizza
And at the end of the day
Even if he couldn’t play
He could always eat it

The Grieving - Old Guitarist
A cocoon of loneliness wraps around him,
his music now quiet, all shards of hope gone
with the last dying notes discordant and off-key,
the soundtrack of his life broken.
Anguish waits at the edge of a silent concert,
solitary harmonics a floating mute mirage,
pure as the music of the spheres
only he can hear
...

The Guitarist
The guitarist
As I wallow In songs
Of freedom
I feel the power of love
From the soul with
Words of peace keep
Running down
my third eye
to my long
Fingers
As I write with a blue pen
The poems of nature
That come from a new birth
The guitarist
The sound from the strings
The sound so tender
Like a morning songs
From the birds
The sound of

The Magic Guitarist
The thrumming thrumming thrumming
can seem so very near
as fingers strumming strumming
make magic that I hear.
Your fine guitar - passionate -
What longing it can bring!
As you stroke the strings of it,
my heart is quivering!
I wait for that resplendence -
melodious and low -
I know will soon commence.
Your sweet words soon will flow.
Your voice which hums, lilts

The Old Guitarist
Blue is the colour, blue is the period, blue is the mood
As Pablo's mind sunk, on the meaning of life he did brood.
The death by his own hand, of a friend that was close
Left Pablo the poor artist quite depressed and morose.
His feelings from deep down within his soul
Could only be expressed by his brush,

The Guitarist
be her/him a
rhythm or lead player,
the guitarist may have
an ego the size of
the greatest known
planet, especially if they
are the primary song
writer, for from every
chord they play, every
single note,
comes that first spark
of something that may
never see the light of
day or possibly the next
song which will go
down in the history of
our human melodies
here in

The Guitarist
Some run smoothly
Up her neck to play
The most wonderful
Sounding notes of joy
While others struggle
With their dexterity
And memory as the
Notes come few and
So far between
Yet, the struggling
Artist who lives for
The pleasure of her
And personal feelings
Will always play
Melodically, as the heart
Desires effort and
Improvement
Thereby allowing
Her lover
To always be
The absolute best.
Therefore it is

Classical Guitarist
You perch on a low stool
of my presence unmindful,
guitar cradled on your lap,
fingers each string loving.
While you delicately pluck,
mesmerizing, hypnotizing,
with slow, flowing arpeggio,
my heartstring you touch.
Who are you to affect me so,
just what kind of magic spell
you put me helplessly under?
'Moonlight Sonata' on tremolo,
'Gone With The Wind', play!
'Chariots of Fire' galloping
right
