I had the idea while seeing people in the hall before my morning classes.
College Hallways are a symphony
They start with one note, then two, then three
It builds itself and has more feeling
Most of the time we are silent
Because our bodies do the expression for us

Then the choir starts
And it becomes far more dynamic
The audience has no idea what they're saying
That's what makes it so good

The symphony is unconscious, we don't know
That we're playing a collective song individually as one
Until we think about it
Then we become self conscious and sloppy

The symphonic sound end once we reach the room
Then a new song plays, a much more organized one
Because we have a conductor this time
