Short Vexations Poems

steps of
           sound
quiet 
            intervals

pause:

     one finger
sans
        chords:
ongoing
         sadness
in
      melancholia

Inspired by YouTube clip of Satie's Vexations...

There are many things to which I'm averse

         From bad words bein' flung

            I'll fix vexations flingin' rocks at a hearse!

Life's a journey ,twenty-four seven....
