Spoken word.
Winter coat
My back is turned
towards the audience
but my heart is there
with them
as is my voice
although -
I am silent at the moment
My hair is getting longer
and soon I'll have my winter coat on
I'll embrace every note
every melody
and then -
I'll select them carefully
put them together in a symphony
and create something out of a total
chaos -
but - it must not be
to tidy
perfection is an illusion
created in the mind by
the person who's afraid
of failing - yet confident
enough in the task - as
far as perfect goes - it is
all about one thing only
- that feeling of having
created something that
will be around for a long
time - a masterpiece fitting
well into the everyday's
as well as the Saturdays
- so as close as you come
to perfection it is
all and nothing but a
feeling - that people
can tune into -
that's all
My back is turned
towards the audience
but my heart is there
with them
as is my voice
although -
I am silent at the moment
creating something out of a total
chaos -
soon I'll have my winter coat on
it must not be
to tidy
I am silent at the moment
creating something out of a total
chaos -
my winter coat protecting me
from the cold
...
One day - I'll turn around
- and face the audience
