Note: 70′s flavor this week. It nestles comfortably between jazz, soul and rock. The melody and the singing are what drive, a temporary change from hard punk, electronica and slow core.

The song makes its imprint
in the air, making itself felt,
a felt world. Here, there,
the stunned silence

of knowing I will not remember
what I heard;

futures that will never happen,
a fluidity we cannot achieve
except as a child
creating possibility.

This is the untranslatable song
hidden in the earth.
