Music of the Spheres

When you are passionately musical, 

sound can be ecstacy. Life is holy.

  

Dissonance is a deep, corporeal gash.  

Every piece of sheet music is gem-encrusted, 

a potential or attained nirvana.  

Sour notes are tooth jangling and cacaphonic, 

and cause your pores to seal.

But the soothe of mellifluous melody 

penetrates like God straight into your bones.
