Have I become musically insane?
Me?
Or the instrument?
Who is to blame?
Where is the key?
It spilled past me?
Is it in "B"?
Or is it in "D"?
The tonics.
The chords.
Use an arpeggio?
Agh, so much to absorb!
Is this music
transcribed for a rhino's horn?
Wait a measure,
this is not right
I don't even like Korn.
I must be in the wrong cleft.
Or like Beethoven,
I've going deaf.
And everything I play,
just melody theft.
I'm out of tune,
And need more room.
I shouldn't have started out
learning King Crimson's
"Vrooom".
Do I really need all these strings?
Maybe, cut five and learn to sing?
Or grab a bass,
And try to save face.
I see no theory.
To many notes
make my eye's weary.
All these wrong sounds,
make me hold silence dearly.
Where's my air guitar?
I love it's flavor.
Where's a mirror?
I'll pretend,
And practice later.
The ability between my head and hands
must have departed.
I'm past the coda,
And left with guitarted!
