Sharing a poem I wrote a few years ago. Imagery of a concert/recital. What do you find striking during a live performance? What do you look at? Hear? Feel?
The Concert
Pale skin over bones and air, blood pumping organs,
hair and fingernails, a smear of lipstick, eyeglasses,
some fabric:
someone plays flute in a recital.
Sounds appear, new music.
Virtually a virtuosic bird and teakettle serenade this
room together.
They like to play.
They catch a breath.
