The huge sound
electrifies me
as the music erupts
in the glory of the moment
I abandon myself
to the charging waves of sound
surrendering to genius
not trying to guess
where he will take me
tumbling after him
like a fish
in a mountain stream
The music
speakes to me
telling me: you are so little
you have nothing to fear
And yet I know now
that I am at the very heart
of all
I am both unimportant
and entirely involved
in the crescendo of notes
My experiences have not after all
been random
Just as the melting harmony
is finding its way back
to the home key
so for me too
there is a plan unfolding
and my task is to travel my road
to the end
I too have longed
for glory
I am the hero of an adventure story
but I am not the author
and as the haunting melody
penetrates the spiral of my cochleas
I follow it
tugged by the fragile skein
of liquid sound
up into a high and far empyrean
where simple beauty floods
my senses
I am ravished by the sound and
while such beauty possesses me
nothing hurtful
can come to pass
as I listen and grow
in power and lightness
as I expand to the size of clouds
to become as vast and empty
as the sky
I see at last what has been happening to me
in the course of my strange journey
There are more rooms in my house
than I inhabit
The divine spirit made flesh
the ineffable force of music
my fears and longings
my memories
all the matter of my mind
and the edifices of my dreams
all things visible and invisible
are taking off
with sound
I am awakening
I have more power than I ever knew
I am on my own
forgive me
