Fat Cellist

I feel like a violin,
double stopping and pizzicatto
are really my thing

up in the higher ranges
with the flute and the piccolo
not with the ponderous bassoon.

Not Julian Lloyd Weber,
Kreisler is my God, Paganini my hero
I want to be a lovely slim violin.

On the strings of a Stradivarius
I would show elegance and grace,
I want to be a wonderful violin
    
not a big fat cello or double bass!

Omega Factor by John Henning

Take some time to walk outside of your own mind and into another, walk slowly and carefully; the mind that you step on might be your own.
