hymnal hypocrisy
Fur Elise in five keys
but the hammer hits futile
and the strings all flaccid
lacking tenacity or tensile strength
or thought
in the sameness of this
a perpetual coda
treble clef
trouble cleft
and the audience seems all

to have gone in
but alas, play on
in cavalier cut-time now
monkey-grinder monotonous
for free.
