there is a moment that occurs between two people. a moment of recognition, where you catch yourself in a silence. that sneaks up on you, unplanned, unannounced. and then all of a sudden you are enveloped. you awaken from a stream of consciousness like stepping on to a railway platform, arriving in a pause. a half note rest between phrases. a lifting of the bow a drawing in of breath two hands poised in mid air. Fer·ma·ta: n. The prolongation of a tone, chord, or rest beyond its indicated time value. and so you revel in, bask and hold on for as long as you can, until i clear my throat and the music starts again. |

| | nina simone - pastel blues | ] | i need you like callused fingers.without feeling or thought.to stand up to the toughest string.to make a descision about where to go.without bending or wavering in you stance.without a doubt in your mind.this is the right note.a lifted melody.stolen glance.moving from fleshy bodies to wooden ones.a duet of conscious-stricken movements.the maximum of indiscretions allowed.no mistakes not worth repeating.play it again and it's jazz. |
