Dear Sacrosanct
March 28, 2013
Religion -- I have none
Music works fine for me
The lack of words...
Dear Sacrosanct,
Church -- I don't want one
My music is my life.
It's unassailable;
Dear Sacrosanct,
Walk into a house of God,
if you so please.
Submerge yourself with holy water;
drown all your guilt;
I refuse, dear Sacrosanct.
Mozart is my God,
Tchaikovsky -- my Jesus.
My piano is my priest,
Sheet music -- my bible.
Dear Sacrosanct...
You drown yourself in God,
Then turn him on me --
My music is holy;
Inviolable;
Immutable;
Sacrosanct.
