The Fiddler
(Dec. 8, 2011) Catgut string
The rosin of the bow
Drawn upon the bridge
A howling, a growl
In the hall
The sun stretches, yawning
Through the glass
Pane upon pane
Sun dawning upon
The floor
Lusterless
The end of night
Given to frivolity
Celebration gone stale
The pale of morning
Filtered through glass
Scratched and needing
To be cleaned
The gleam of the violin
The polished body
Of red
The woods come
Inside
The call is made
By the fiddler
He extracts a payment
Made exact
By the precision of the dance
Chance made real
The dues paid by these
Who must stretch and move
A nocturnal dream
