The Musical Urge.
The musical urge to sit at my instrument and practice dusk through to dawn again and again until I pass out, just to wake hours later with blood stained, raw-skinned fingers, played to the bone, an aching back posed straighter than the lines of the stave i'm supposed to be reading and a pounding headache from the sheets in front of me; only to continue playing until I merge with the dynamics of it all and become my own unique modern day symphony.
