Alison Cassidy - Honoring Peter Sculthorpe

Such a paltry sum*
to acknowledge
such a giant
of music

Kakadu
Earth Cry
Left Bank Waltz
and most memorably
Chorale Requiem
for the victims
of Iraq

You bare
your soul
We share
your voice
and dance
your dreaming

Peter Sculthorpe
Your music will live on
when all the celebrities
and their millions have been forgotten

Alison Cassidy
