listen
the sparkling universe
of just intonation:
the sonny downs
quartet’s 2020
village melodies.
taste

first sip, cracking
nut, then the after
flower burn, clean
with fruit. fistules
of smiles. sweet
even at tip edge.
amazing nut bloom,
gentle and present.
amazing nut fruit,
worship at dawn.
sine bloom, sign
of riches.
reflection
feelings tether
to the ground of breath.
feel being in the waves
translating episodic memories
into what it is like
to be with
a continuity
of context.
balance is
grown in time.
so genius ferments
sense from chaos
with nudge
and re-
birth, a few
bits control
the game.
