Two Part Invention

i write poetry
i play music

out of tender romance
aimed at urgent express

so bored my pen becomes
energetically the piano sounds

few words can be new
no keys stay down low

you see tis true
you hear this fool

be prepared to challenge
get ready to renew

why stand by it with wilful gaze
how fun is undertaking the aged and ill

life is too short not to
eternity is within the soul

write this fugal poem
when composing poetic fuge
