Dissonance Rising

Moments float around in my head

Like airy piano melodies

Played on electric keyboards

With the volume turned down so it's quiet

Sometimes a bad choice slips through

A wrong note, dissonance rising

As the pedal stays pressed, the chord lingers

I let my fingers rest a bit

Thinking about what to play next

How to make it better

The next song begins, my hands detached from my mind

I close my eyes and wait to hear

What the keys will open,

Wonder where they will take me.
