    Closing his ears against sound trapped in light leaking music
    a child made of stardust is rained on by elemental,
    anonymous stardust from the humming sky. Rootless stardust.

    Edit!!
    Here. A circle of drums – I
    imagine myself in the middle, wishing heart-mind restrung in rhythm
    and the light rises. Now.

    Here, in the circle of the music, blasted out of
    one’s delirium, the senseless chatter of the mind drowned
    in rhythm, light rises. Now.
