"Ladies and gentlemen, the Last Supper." -Dwight Schrute


OUTSIDE

Are some kids making jokes about

“Grand pas” and “allregrettos”

Wearing concert black

Carrying hollowed metal and paper with

Dots and lines on it


INSIDE

Are the pieces of our souls being put together

Our heartstrings connecting to lines on slurs and ties

Minds transferring to alternate realities

Where harmonies flow through us

And melodies pull us through them

I've been in band since the 8th grade. At first, it was only something I did because the rest of my friends did it, but now I LOVE it. I love music. I'd go insane without music. It's become a lifestyle for me, and that's why I decided to write a poem for music.
