    “A Quiet Poem” by Frank O’Hara

    When music is far enough away
    the eyelid does not often move

    and objects are still as lavender
    without breath or distant rejoinder.

    The cloud is then so subtly dragged
    away by the silver flying machine

    that the thought of it alone echoes
    unbelievably; the sound of the motor falls

    like a coin toward the ocean's floor
    and the eye does not flicker

    as it does when in the loud sun a coin
    rises and nicks the near air. Now,

    slowly, the heart breathes to music
    while the coins lie in wet yellow sand.

If you have to make a living, it's already made you.

I'm another artist who wants you to read what I write. Basic idea of a blog? I think so.

Welcome!
