2081. TO ACHIEVE ARTICULATION

TO ACHIEVE ARTICULATION

Difficult this is; scene one, act the first.

Isaiah 14. Everything has been put aside

for the waiting - sunlight, snowstorm,

death and the maiden too. It is heavy

going down the corridors of time. I

move while my skullcap stays in place,

and these thoughts matter little.

-

Oh my Williamsburg rabbi, listen to

me as I talk, and then talk back. Talk

to me as I listen. You may wish to

understand what I never can. The

robin did come home to roost. The

wind, it really did rustle the willows.

No matter, no matter;

all is gone, all is gone.
