The Properties of Air

"written for a bridge in Seattle used as a self-willed exit from this world"



"the opera

and

the long playing record"



an immense repository

on the surface of a body

forever crossing

space

"warm-blooded

cautionary tale of shadow"

into weather
divine


to let a record play from start to end

violin cases

wide-awake in the hands of

another day

unfortunate music consumed

rendered

eternal

in

the original key.....
