For the Warsaw-Fans

Boccherini in the afternoon
++++++++++++++laps at the windows of the chapel
+++++++++++++++++++++seems to bend the angles of the pews
+++++++++++++++++++++within arpeggios of light
+++++++as the young cellist plays
paces her father the pianist
+++++++++++++++++++++while she keeps her own good time.
Boccherini’s rococo ornamentation
+++++++++++++++++++++animates the afternoon
++++++++++++++like a Copernican day
+++++++giving a hint of ”primum mobile”
while the windlass phrases wind their way
until this mastery could command the prize
+++++++within the harbor of our ears and eyes.
