Pianissimo
by Jim Nasium
The piano man
played with one hand
in an pianissimo style
all the while
we danced...
his other hand pointed the way
he wanted us to go
he wanted us to follow his music
he wanted us to dance
directional music or not
we danced and followed his music
till we forgot
what time it was
The moonlights shadow moved along with us
as we danced to the directional tune
with each step, spin, or twirl we took
the directional sound of the pianissimo tune
was our only guide
the pianissimo tune guided us
now, unable to see his pointing finger
followed only by the moon light
into unknown directions
free to dance
