HAVING MUSIC
HAVING MUSIC
for Doug, who plays it with me
It is that
the beat is
there, even
as the air
waits for it.
Trust we land
on it, a
single note
between us.
They listen.
Even as
they hold their
breaths waiting
here it comes
again. It
enfolds them,
and us, and
won't let go,
that moment
when music's
the only
thing we need.
