A POEM ABOUT
DOUBLE BASS INSTRUMENTS

http://www.openlettersmonthly.com/stevereads/2010/05/people-of-note/

The men who have the saddest faces

Are those who play the Double Basses

Though deep in misery their cup

They have to take it standing up,

And sawing on a clothesline string

They grunt and groan like anything.

The orchestra’s last-line defense

They also see the audience

And, spying in the distant offing,

They spot the man who does the coughing –

The school girl in expectant dither –

The wife who dragged her husband with her –

The novice groping in a maze –

The critic whittling out a phrase –

And those who sleep – and those who snore

Which makes them groan and grunt some more.
