David Holbrook - Makes Perfect

O the Joy
Of brass pedals
Under naked feet.

Airy arms
And arpeggios.

A bare bottom
Nestled in cushion.

The fifth resolving
To the tonic,
With gin.

Scales mounted
Cadences coming.

Pianissimo sounds
Caressing scented
Flesh.

O the Joy
Of playing
The piano
Naked.

David Holbrook
