Goldberg Capillaries
Goldberg Variations, András Schiff
on a small crackling radio
in the east bedroom
a late July afternoon in Norrbotten
with a pinch of hope
and the air temperature just right;
final capillaries of the broadcast;
crackling tones feeling their way
cautiously across my open face
with exquisite grace and sacred tenderness,
my aging body cradled on the swells of time
toward eternity's flickering reflections
