elegant fingers glide
across a virgin piano
about to be annihilated
in the most elegant
and delectable fashion
secrets woven amongst
the notes, with each sharp, flat
or unelevated key — the presence
of a catalyst that never surrenders
through moments of insane
subterfuge — hidden beside
fluffy feathers
and fantastical unicorns
the weight of each key
music which fades into the mist
is riddled with the appreciation
of the enchantment
for the proclivity
to rise and float
as the music ledger travels
to the strata behind
in lieu of staff lines
that desire to be explored
the facet of that little innovation
of ceaseless passion as it solidifies
the elegance of a statue — poised
hushed corners — rapture
ensconces the verity
of space consumed
with instruments
of flight
and a demeanour to shatter
a class ceiling that forever
inches into the strata
with layers of exploration
worthy of the single ion
in the core of your being
