The Pines
of Rome are many and moving. You can’t
look for them (they aren’t really in Rome, not these)
but
they may steal you for your splintered memories:
When you were sweating out bug spray
at band camp, rubbing your sore lips, lifting your chin to see beyond the bifocals, dodging night beetles.
Fantasia
2000 and the trippy whales: Above is below and the end is one huge gulp of air.
Whenever I
hear the oboe I think of my sister. Sometimes the oboe and the bassoon play
together and that is like my sister playing with my other sister. We had our moments of
harmony.
The Pines
of Rome aren’t really pines. They are the
sounds produced from lots of
different frictions. They are
the crests of waves multiplying and gathering strength and interfering with one another. They are so many
moving parts. What you have is really a
dance or a great migration.
Some
parts are messy, like a mistake. Sometimes
the throat gets caught high in the voice.
Some things happen off stage.
The bass might sound like men
singing in hallways. It will trick you, and you’ll love that. It will evoke birds --
