"If they cut off both hands, I will compose music anyway holding the pen in my teeth." -Shostakovich


Money in the bank
and gold in the heart
Coins and paper
make the person, but doesn’t the person
make coins and paper?

Trading happy faces for sad faces
and silver for copper,
but no one cares for gold

Locked up in a safe
that only one can open
He who has the gold key
that fits through the gold lock

Twist, turn, click, creak
Empty; no happy faces, sad faces, silver, copper
No gold. Not even one gold
