Change is inevitable: good musical responses are not…
Each week The Sunday Whirl invites writers to write a poem or short prose using some or all of the “Wordle’s” 12 words. This week it is:
Wordle’s words
Responding with Music to a Change in the Spheres
Lies. Lies. Lies.
It’s flat. Now find the keys.
Hold the note.
Stretch the ends.
Lies. Lies. Lies.
Drop that note.
Stretch the ends.
Work the keys.
Lies. Lies. Lies
Pattern the ends.
Feed those keys.
Work that righteous note.
Easy. Easy. Easy.
Practice. Practice. Practice.

I appreciate your adeptness with words, Randy, but I have to admit that most things political are simply making me tired these days. Heading off to church now for some singing and fellowship. Blessings on your day.

Interesting, to me, that even in the most broadest language, the sound of music, a political riff can be heard, interpreted and responded to as a tiresome note.
Thanks for your getting it, and for your understandably and expected response.
Enjoy church and the joy of singing. Another musical healing hymn of the spheres that supposedly never changes.

Looking at your tags, I realized where you were headed, but I was pretty sure you might be having political posts these days. I always appreciate that you and I can talk and even disagree without that in any way endangering our friendship.
Thank God.
With so much practice I suspect lies and truth are easily changed around..perhaps we even forget which is which after time
I hope not.
Thanks for the sentiment though.

This reminds me of a great old tune by a mostly forgotten band called the Knickerbockers. “Someday I’m gonna be happy, but I don’t know when just now–lies, you’re breaking my heart…”
I’m old, and I know a lot of old songs. I like things that have that feel!
1) I know that song.
Therefore, 2) you’re not that old, and
3) I’m singing it at the moment.
Thanks for bringing it back to memory.
Randy
Brilliant use of repetition.
