Distrust
Just off AP readings.
They leave me with
so little
how one
must earn a living
however devoid
of meaning. Today I return to YouTube
hear tenors sing arias
I could never sing
labelled early
a soprano
but without the talent.
So I live vicariously
within yours,
a singer without a voice
a writer without a song.

I feel the ache of this- and I love it.
i feel this grief and loss
Pavarotti’s ‘Nesun Dorma’ is a video I re-watch often. And cry every time. Very evocative writing, rkd. Nicely done!
