Once upon a time
I met a man.
He played the piano,
cello and violin,
flute and accordion,
harp and trumpet.
Once upon a time
I met a man.
He played everything,
but I could not help to notice
he did not play.
He could not play a single note.
Once upon a time
I met a man.
He could play any instrument,
and he made angels weep
at his triumph and protection.
But he could not sing.
Once upon a time
I met a man,
who was everything and yet nothing
because he could not touch his own heart
that was blackened and corrupted with the Greed.
He frowned.
I met a man once
who had nothing.
He could not play.
He could not see.
He could not sing.
