from "Primogenitive Folly" 23

communication, community, early work, metaphor, poetry

                                 Confluence
a distinction
like the jet stream
air through  air
the  priest chants
speaking  of  one  thing
i hear another
the one voice
a multiplicity
the clamor a harmony
a monophonic polyphony
the drummer departs
tripping lightly  from the bass
each swerves momentarily
apart before returning



(April 2001-April 2003)
