lyrics

This young man was born blind,
completely so.
No light and shade can penetrate
those pebbles buried in his eye sockets
scabbed against sore skin.

Now hear this – he brings us an air of intuition
and vision, practicing a precise stirring of sound
because his ears detect the width of pronunciation.
The sigh before the word is spoken, the high syllable,
hesitations, broken accents, repetition – those giveaway
clues of repeating reels which explain to me the world I look
upon; grammar is not what he reads but what surrounds
him, breathed back and forth, patterning explanation
from the bottom of the bell to the top of his tuning
fork beaten for piano, he interprets the air within
our sharpened flats of untangled conversation.
