This is a clip from Tom Scudiero’s Looks Like Rain played at an open mic. I had the pleasure of getting to play violin with him.
Blurs, slurs and sad songs bring,
a ring to the air,
combating the calling chatter.
It matters most because we play with our souls,
attempting to hush the crowd.
It’s their loss,
as they miss the notes of lingering memories,
and wistful longing.
