LSG 5/16/2014
This music is the sound
of my feet falling through the air,
landing on corrugated metal and running
up and down the angular spittle of
the spine
This wall is white \
black / purple and grey
this is rust colored
and the streets
are streaked with blankets
and performers
some woman
whirling white hula hoops
the cellist had already departed
The pavement is liquid
in places\
it's a dry day
there are
many people in the taqueria
to my great surprise they
give me whole black beans
with my shrimp plate
Sound is a funny thing
sometimes it breaks the walls
apart
other times
it makes the floor rattle
still others
it's a delicate kiss
on the forehead
Music is the sound of people
organizing waves into
lines and phrases
that mutter and shuffle
and breathe
like circular
it's circular
the soul of this building
and the breathing
The NeckFace
smiles down
on the cement floor
and The sound
it lights the walls\.
