Scoreless

July 31, 2016 Jeff Reed

O that a soundtrack

were always playing

at my back. The swelling

 

strings and sad oboe

would turn poignant

my ordinary moments,

 

and even I, after

awhile, might begin

to believe that even

 

this mattered, this

dull aimless stroll

beneath a silent heaven.
