S2:E5
This episode consists of a poem born from the top of a panoramic hill southeast of Asheville. Read by yours truly.
1,000 Secret Whispers Through an IT Tower Knoll
Hilltop of open cattle land and cell tower IT needles,
Sun setting over endless grass.
Are we always whispering across such spaces
Mole hills tunneling their crazy paces
Beneath the only tall things left, the thistles
And last seasons’ dung. Bare rocks
Turn face towards Sun when she
Molasses passes far above. On microwaves
Dart messages of love, like fishes
Navigating corals some thousand miles below this knoll
Which holds the concrete toes of spires’ wires
Passing their threads of spiders messages
Above thru viewless space dimensionally inaccessible except
To ears of precious metal mined at feet of war torn wilderness
Thousands of miles away. So we may say
Into tight microphone like a child’s game of telephone
I love you, I hate you, come home, stay gone, I will.

Drop deep for a moment. Getting art to your ears.
