He composed the piece for viola
because
like every composer
who ever composed a piece for viola,
he was in love with a violist.
I wonder if she knows
what she created
as his muse.
If she celebrates,
Or sinks inside herself,
when she hears the low C sing.
The unmoved mover
with cause of attraction
extracting beauty
from the mind of the man
who remembers her each time
another woman holds the bow
and plays his piece
with her name in his heart
if not on the page.
