I finally got a text for my piece thanks to the lovely mr. Dave Goudie:
A thread,
A pin that works its way,
Across the sky
Tells a lie,
Tells a lie,
Forming clusters here and there,
Depicting gods and men
That never should conspire,
And a crab for some reason
A bead,
A shred of logic,
Somewhere in my mind,
I can't find,
I can't find,
Shame constellations
My plan for this piece is to use a lot of extended techniques to recreate the visual imagery. The first stanza will contain a lot of pizz. on the piano strings as well as scraping and swiping. The word 'cluster' will obviously consist of cluster chords and will definitely be a word I can play off of for a bit. For the line 'Depicting gods and men' I am going to try and create some sort of god like motive to play with. Definitely something rhythmic.
