~ THE PIANO ~
william pauley III
The devil be hiding.
His bones be the keys.
The woman be playing
black notes, weak knees.
If angels be calling,
they be deaf to the ear,
for the devil be shouting.
Broken chords keep her near.
The woman still singing,
still swimming in fear.
The devil still howling,
so painfully clear.
