Hammerklavier

Not the energitic, meaningful sonata,
Certainly not the soft, useless novella,
But the hammer of life!

Hammer those hardheaded men,
Who live in the past;
Who dwell on tops of mounts;
Who bury their faces into books;
Who use their minds like “Kant’s”;
Who lift their hands to be “nice”;
Who dress their clothes as “saints”;
And,
Who are about to become nothing but dusts!

Men of the future,
Feel the joy of the B-flat,
When hammering past men like that!

(a delication to decloration and exaduation; a reflection to passion and mission)
