BACH FOR CHRISTMAS! (for my pal Al)
The church orchestra
search around for an
E sharp.
The conductor blows his nose.
But as the oboe player points out:
'That's in F sharp! '
They laugh.
The singer
starts singing
words like
stepping across ice as it cracks:
'In the beginning
was the Word
and the Word was
...lilac! '
Yet more laughter.
The stained glass listens
to their musical tomfoolery
as they practice their perfection
& the rehearsals drag on.
Tonight it will be
nothing but Holy.
A pagan tree
cowers in a corner
all Christmasy.
A church hanging
proclaiming:
'Praise him
hail and lightning! '
As we two
lost souls
delight in
the music
of being
...human!
