ROSES AND THE UNIVERSE

ROSES AND THE UNIVERSE
Alone staring into midnight, lying on a park bench
Surrounded by its red roses and trees of green
A sky painted of blue and purple, filled with stars
Isolated from the entire world, and all of its sound.
He begins to play,
Tonight I will be distant from others, but not alone.
We look into the soul of the universe, Mozart and I.
Das Klavierkonzert
My soul is released from the gates of restriction that we call perception
I begin to leave my body,
And take a ride on the checkerboard train
Under the stars that look like the souls of song
And through the red roses and trees of green,
een sterrenhemel, sterrenhemel middernacht
painted by the spirit Van gogh
my flesh left empty, under canvas painted reality
Nicht wach!! he says, do not awake!
My own personal messiah, “Walk with me in this garden“ and begins to play louder.
And the stars become brighter and the roses more red
While the sky turns to deep midnight purple
I am but a man riding with gods, frightened to open my eyes.
J’ai trouve ce que je suis a la recherche pour, birntot je vais ecrire la musique qui etait cache dans les profondeurs de mon ame d‘un tel longtemps, tres longtemps.
David James Westlake
