Desert Music

I can see the values
So long cherished,
So long help dear -
Evaporated.

When life was gentle,
Security was key,
Time enjoyed -
Harried?

There once was harmony,
Tunes so clear,
Melodies so fresh -
Disonence!

Another poem written during the Prom 1991 series. This was after listening to "Desert Music" composed by Steve Reich during a late night Prom.

7th August 1991- The Royal Albert Hall, London, England.
