The Band:
The woman stops playing
And gives a signal to the band
And the band stops playing.
She is very sure that
She has found the man of her dreams.
She signals to the band,
The band starts to play.
The man stops playing
And gives a signal to the band
And the band stops playing.
He is very sure that
He has found the woman of his dreams.
He gives a signal to the band,
The band starts to play.
Nobody stops playing.
And no one gives a signal to the band;
And the band continues to play.
The man in the band
And the woman in the band
Are very sure that
They have found the lovers of their lives.
Because no one signals to the band,
The band never intends to stop.

What is strange about this poem? Life itself, isn't it? Successive events of the expected and the unexpected.
