Poem
In the middle of the crowd
He put on his quirky shirt
and started playing the guitar
for a moment he was god
at least in the viewers eyes
those fingers sliding across
this beautiful instrument
created to seduce
created to please
created to give you
an experience of another
universe - forget time and place
They were listening
looking - breathing in
every note - every sound
coming out of the guitar
he leaned his head back
like he was facing the sun
indulging in warm weather
The crowd was silent
for a while - stood there
moving slightly with the music
as it peaked - they felt the vibrations
going through their bodies
It was madness in the most
subtle way - like life on another
planet - like a new start in an old
smokey room - like entering heaven
for a short visit - seeming to last forever
captured in a second - it was
it was a journey traveling
through space with nothing
but a beautiful song on your mind
in your heart - alone - yet in the middle of a crowd
There he stood
in his quirky shirt
playing the guitar
making love with the audience
for a moment he was god
those fingers sliding across
this beautiful instrument
created to give you
an experience of another
universe - forget time and place
For a moment
they were all
making music
- making love
