Silent Etudes

This blog is a mysterious arrangement of merciless logic for a futile purpose. It's a place they turn the lights down low, the jigsaw jazz and the jet fresh flow. A place for the humble, the nimble, the inward and the handmade. A jam session where Django Reinhardt meets Ludwig Wittgenstein while listening to Baden Powell quoting Charlie Parker. A pithy palace of puns and subversions. A place for broken chords and backyard tropes.

Juke Joint

Down at the juke joint
bartenders proclaim
antinomies of pure reason
dialectics untamed

A single light bulb
hangs to reveal
riots of meaning
in bourbon and beer

The telecaster twangs
A bottom E string
Bent to logical limits
of empirical swing
