An Excerpt
…. Then tacet once more,
waiting, returned beyond the lowest
possibility of sound, to listen,
to watch. As we watch
what is woven yet can’t be seen,
the beauty calling the quintet
and us to gather — all unseen.
We go home,
make our customary mistakes, confuse
visible signs with invisible grace.
