18th March 2023


 

glimmers of sunshine

escaping the early clouds

migrating swifts

Radio Four

lamenting the decline of music

in the school curriculum.

All we got were recorder lessons

(and we had to get our moms to buy them)

and a teacher who wasn't trained

and just knew a little bit.

Not enough to inspire the class

but enough to hate the discordant sounds.

Is it any wonder my dream of being a rock star

died on the altar of misinstruction.
