Perfect Pitch

Outside corner, low, away,

Paint the black. Strike three.

Hometown crowd erupts with joy,

Fanatics roar with glee.

 

Mezzo soprano sharpens. Ends

Her aria with ease.

Audience is mesmerized,

Mezzo soprano pleased.

 

Salesman standing, foot in door to

Satisfy my itch,

Amaze me with your talent for

Illusion, bait and switch.

 

Braced for failure, seeking out

Perpetual perfection.

Seldom finding sweet success

Advancing my direction.

 

Goes to show, one never knows

The what, how, where or which,

The subtle canvas that we paint

In finding perfect pitch.
