Concerto for Electric Violin & Heartbeat



On another note, she took his breath,
rich with the rhythms of the ocean, and
threw it to her best friend, who
was sitting in the concert hall, waiting.

A dimming hum brushes against the audience,
hidden from the music, the all-too-taken things
near the end.

The concert begins in half an hour.
Inevitably, in the darkness, notes
are passed from hand to hand,
slip through fingers,
inevitably, the last hand holds air.

Afterwards, we go to a superb Thai restaurant,
with some left, and right, hemisphere regrets.

Out front, the lapping ocean
the world’s most aligned mountain
waiting to be heard.
