The rhythm of life / Is a jazz rhythm / Honey / The gods are laughing at us / The broken heart of love / The weary, weary heart of pain,- / Overtones / Undertones / To the rumble of street cars / To the swish of rain / Lenox Avenue / Honey / Midnight / And the gods are laughing at us (Avishai Cohen, poem by Langston Hughes)

Every true poem is a spark, / And aspires to the condition of the original fire / Arising out of emptiness. / It is that same emptiness it wants to reignite / It is that same engendering it wants to be re-engendered by. / Shooting stars. / April's identical, / Celestial, wordless, burning down. / Its light is the light we commune by. / Its destination's our own, its hope is the hope we live with (Avishai Cohen, poem by Charles Wright)

Hitting the notes, ringing the change / It's clipped phrasing and dry ice in summer / Straining against the rhythm, speeding it up / Loping forward and looping back, finding the curl / In the wave, the modd in the air. It's / Splintered tones and furious double timing / It's leaving the other instruments on stage (Camila Nebbia, poem by Edward Hirsch)
