4956. GLORIOUS MOMENTS IN THE FLUGELHORN BAND


GLORIOUS MOMENTS IN 
THE FLUGELHORN BAND
I came forth for the racetrack entry and 
left before the show : master-plan and 
master-class together. The banter between 
sets was about the broken beat on line 21, 
but that was about it. Over in Jersey City, 
by that big cemetery, run-down and alongside 
the last street at Liberty Park, the 
dead were still dead.
-
Now the train-horn whistles rang, a firetruck
and a hearse. This landscape runs down to
the river - ancient and harsh and still lived
by the natives who run at the shore. The 
bandshell is filled with horn-playing men.
