i wrote this by mucking around in logic. i took some harpsichord midi files and changed them to synth parts. the synths are monophonic and they're trying to play a polyphonic part which creates all sorts of weird leaps, which i find pleasing. the words took me a while. i've been watching a lincoln documentary and was inspired by his "a house divided" speech.

a heart divided

Lyrics

human hearts divided into pieces
quartered from within
will not last
as is often said
 
should our part occur within a crisis
may we do our best
to make amends
until the crisis pass

should the horn of war join our chorus
oh god forbid
let it be said 
that we did silence it

blue and grey our bodies lay out nightly
finally at rest
let us of pray of peace:
that we might learn it

amen
