abstracted bass, cacophonic drums echoing.
fretting guitars, humming in jubilation.
knackish lyrics, melancholy narrated opus.
phrased quartets, rare sonorous texture.
upbeat virtuoso, windy xaphoons yodel Zep....

Distinguished author
A virtuoso I am
I’m superior
Within all of the fine arts
But now I exaggerate

THE VIRTUOSO

on stage
see the picket lines
row after row
and the far vault
gone any dress discomfort
just him

brilliance      fame?
presence       expectation?
not a concern
just him alone
and how does his part begin?

full
moon
waxing-
three percent
before completion-
exposed- no clouds- shadows dancing
light breeze teases branches to swish a snare drum rhythm
owls hoot and toot- nightingale virtuoso sings jazz- its summertime the woodland rocks...

They gather in cathedral clinics,
(with virtuoso grin)
scientists in robes of white.
Pretentious keepers of a new race,
their will shall be a will that mimics;
Manipulating the gene pool's base
in halls white-washed of sin,
not as God, but as God might......

Clapton at the ‘Crossroads,’
virtuoso running free

Winwood pounding ‘I’m A Man,’
his genius at the keys

Tonight inside the ‘Garden,’
time stopped as God decreed

Twin fathers back together
—the ‘Blues’ their history

(Villanova Pennsylvania: March, 2017)...

When i sleep,
  I transform...
I'm a guitar virtuoso,
I downplay verses
coming from the ethereal...
  I  speak   languages
  never  learned before...
I'm a hero and a sage,
lover and angel...
Save worlds and lives...!
I imagine, I am back to being
what one day I
had been...!...

If one day comes   
       in which i no longer require
       of worldly needs,
       I will satisfy my desires
       with little ... little is what
       we need to live
       But for this I must be
       well alive, I am  not
       virtuoso enough
       to despise life ...!...

Birdsong twitters
Sunlight flickers in and out of clouds
Weaving messages with light
You resonate with sound

Chirping virtuoso
Eco vibrato on a pleasing wind
A melody to serenade my ears
As wings glide legato 
Wings flap staccato
From bird’s eye view
Your chorus chimes

I beg reprise ......

Touch the woman's heart,
          it's virtuoso performance.
          Woman is violin Stradivarius,
          Steinway & Sons piano,
          sweet flute,,,
          To play well,
          must be skilled,
          careful,
          affectionate
          and offer a lot of love ...! ......

Cello Seduction

A brief glance toward the audience,
She closes her eyes and begins to play.
The maestro sat astride her Cello,
Sonata in C Major carries me away.

Ordinarily I don’t listen to classics,
But the sound of a Cello enchants.
So, as I listen to my virtuoso lady,
Her music seduces me in trance....

skeptical swollen soles
tracing dark toes
on vying veins
of tactic trains:
lofty lousy limbs
etched in ink

drastic dances dripping
on seeps scrunching
in jumpy jolly

mystic melody birthed
embroidered with will
virtuoso concerto crunching

sumptuous soles stretching
la-de-da limbs lurching.
